“Jubilee” — A Song for Leighton 🎵
(Verse 1)
Nine years old with a shy little smile,
Jet‑black hair that falls down for miles.
Brown eyes glowing like the warm sunrise,
A heart so sweet it could soften the skies.
She laughs at her jokes even when they’re not funny,
Moves at her own pace, a little procrastinating honey.
But she loves so big, and she loves so true,
And every day I’m proud of you.
(Chorus)
Oh, Jubilee… my Leighton, you’re a light to me.
You’re the dream I held the day you came to be.
I’ll cheer you on through everything you chase,
Every sport, every sketch, every wild dream you make.
You’re growing strong, you’re growing free…
My girl, my heart, my Jubilee.
(Verse 2)
Blue and teal paint the world in your mind,
Building little worlds only you could design.
Robotics team queen with imagination to spare,
A creator at heart with talent everywhere.
You love your friends, your school, your church,
You love every creature that walks this earth.
Baseball, basketball, soccer on your feet,
You play with courage no one can beat.
(Chorus)
Oh, Jubilee… my Leighton, you’re a light to me.
You’re the dream I held the day you came to be.
I’ll cheer you on through everything you chase,
Every sport, every sketch, every wild dream you make.
You’re growing strong, you’re growing free…
My girl, my heart, my Jubilee.
(Bridge)
One day you’ll stand as a woman so bold,
Independent, confident, brave and gold.
But no matter how far your footsteps roam,
You’ll always have a place called home.
(Final Chorus)
Oh, Jubilee… my Leighton, you’re a light to me.
From the moment you arrived, you changed everything.
I’ll love you through every season you see,
Forever proud, forever here…
My girl, my heart, my Jubilee.
