Adaline, oh Adaline
I didn't mean for this to happen
I thought I was watching the road

Adaline, oh Adaline
Your smile brought joy to my life
You made all my dreams come true

Adaline, oh Adaline
I loved you as my own
I knew you felt the same

Adaline, oh Adaline
You may never have been able to run like the other kids
You were never defeated by a challenge

Adaline, oh Adaline
I didn't see the semi
I thought you and I'd be fine

Adaline, my Adaline
Such a beautiful girl
Tell me how heaven is, baby

"Cerebral Palsy couldn't keep you down,
A gentler child will never be found
Live on in our hearts, my sweet flower
Go and see your higher power
We love you"
