Walked down the sidewalk
|
Staring at your feet
|
Wishing my steps were longer
|
So by your sides I could keep
|
|
Hold your hand much bigger
|
Never wanted mine to grow
|
So I could always feel perfect
|
Inside your palms just so
|
|
No one loves me just like you do
|
No one knows me just like you do
|
No one can compare to way my eyes fit in yours
|
You'll always be my father
|
And I'll always be your joy
|
|
Laid me on your belly
|
Nights when mama wasn't home
|
Lightning made me shiver
|
And you never let me feel alone
|
|
I tried to match your breathing
|
Beating my little heart against yours
|
Perfect were the nights we were sleeping
|
I never want to end what we are
|
|
'Cause No one loves me just like you do
|
And no one knows me just like you do
|
No one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours
|
You'll always be my father
|
And I'll always be your joy
|
|
One day he'll come on bended knee
|
And ask my love away from thee
|
And when I give my love to him
|
You'll always have a place within
|
One day he'll come on bended knee
|
And ask my love away from thee
|
And when I give my love to him
|
You'll always have a place within
|
|
No one loves me just like you do
|
No one knows me just like you do
|
No one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours
|
You'll always be my father
|
And I'll always be your joy.
