I always knew, this time would come
|
still I'm not ready, is anyone?
|
As a child I believed daddies lived on and on
|
I guess I was wrong.
|
|
We had our moments, didn't we though?
|
thought we'd never speak again, the day I left home.
|
I was so much like you, swore I'd always be strong,
|
I guess I was wrong.
|
|
Why when it rains, does it always pour?
|
Why does this pain feel like nothing I felt before?
|
as a child I believed daddies lived on and on
|
I guess I was wrong.
|
|
Tried so hard to prove myself in your eyes
|
could never live up to your standards so high.
|
White skin on white sheets, your hand reaches for mine
|
daddy don't cry.
|
|
Ooooh
|
Why when it rains does it always pour?
|
As your first daughter I couldn't have loved you more.
|
As a child I believed daddies lived on and on
|
I guess I was wrong.
|
|
Daddy your love for my mother, your wife,
|
moves me more deeply than all else in my life.
|
In the hospital bed, she holds you 'till dawn
|
loves all that lives on.
|
|
As a child I believed daddies lived on and on
|
perhaps I wasn't wrong.
