转眼,女儿已经十五岁,俨然长大成人。
十五年前那个周日的晚上,一个新的生命呱呱坠地。她被初初推出产房的时候,竟然不知叫她什么。
十五年之内,经历了家庭支离和人生变迁,女儿已经长大,有时看着涂着粉,画着眼圈的女儿,觉得有些陌生。
曾经听过Bob Carlisle那首Butterfly Kisses的歌,表现的是父亲晚上在女儿熟睡之后,又眼睫毛拂动女儿的脸颊,谓之蝴蝶之吻,表达父亲对女儿的深深的爱。
恰巧,上班路上,放起这首歌,在今天女儿十五岁生日的这一天,更有意义。
Butterfly Kisses
Songwriters: Carlisle, Bob; Thomas, Randy;
There's two things I know for sure
She was sent here from heaven
And she's daddy's little girl
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close my eyes
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life
Oh but most of all
For butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk beside the pony daddy it's my first ride
I know the cake looks funny daddy but I sure tried
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every mornin'
And butterfly kisses at night
Sweet 16 today
She's lookin' like her mama a little more every day
One part woman the other part girl
To perfume and make up from ribbons and curls
Trying her wings out in a great big world
But I remember
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair
You know how much I love you daddy
But if you don't mind
I'm only gonna kiss you on the check this time
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every mornin'
And butterfly kisses at night
All the precious time
Like the wind the years go by
Precious butterfly
Spread your wings and fly
She'll change her name today
She'll make a promise and I'll give her aways
Standing in the bride room just staring at her
She asked me what I'm thinkin'
And I said I'm not sure
I just feel like I'm loosin' my baby girl
And she leaned over
Gave me butterfly kisses with her mama there
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk me down the isle daddy
It's just about time
Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?
Daddy's don't cry
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every mornin'
And butterfly kisses
I couldn't ask God for more than this is what love is
I know I've got to let her go but I'll always remember
Every hug in the mornin' and butterfly kisses

Butterfly Kiss(蝴蝶之吻)不是指蝴蝶的亲吻,而是指当大人和小孩以脸部亲昵地靠在一起时,其中一人的眼睫毛,随着眼睛的眨动,轻轻的刷拂在另外一人的脸颊上,或者是两个人额头面对面的凑在一起,双方的睫毛互相刷拂,那种感觉,就好像是轻柔的蝴蝶在“亲吻”着你。
女儿就要年满16岁了,Bob突然惊觉女儿已经长大,用不了多久,就要离巢单飞。此时,许多甜蜜的回忆,一点一滴涌现了出来,使他感慨万千......
第一次带女儿去骑马、第一次女儿给他做蛋糕,还有每晚临睡前给女儿的‘蝴蝶之吻’,又想到女儿将来结婚的情景,他看着穿上礼服的女儿,心中感慨,是否会永远失去女儿?女儿安慰着父亲,再度给他“蝴蝶之吻”,
回首过往、瞻望未来,他相信自己必定曾经为女儿做过许多,才配拥有女儿的爱,以及那些令人难忘的“蝴蝶之吻”。生命也许就是这样。在心灵深处永远记得这些年来每个早晨的拥抱,还有那些“蝴蝶之吻”也就够了。
旧金山San Francisco Chronicle的报导说,有位听众一边开车一边听此歌,因感动泣不成声而不得不停车到路边,足见它的魅力。
这首歌后来成为各电台热门榜首。唱片也成为1997年夏季销售的第一名。1998年还获得了第四十届格莱美最佳乡村歌曲奖。Bob也被冠以抒情天王美名,成为美国专辑榜、成人抒情榜、福音歌曲榜排行三冠王。
如今,蝴蝶之吻(Butterfly Kisses)已经成为美国人婚礼上必不可少的经典歌曲。
