Precious Daddy Issues

Waiting for a prince that will never come, cause daddy really hurt my mum

Expectations rise and standards won't drop
And any man that comes along the worries don't stop
Even the one I've currently got treats me kindly but is it enough?
Cause underneath it all I am out of breath
What is to follow this next?
I don't wanna face what my mum's had to overcome

I'm waiting for a prince that will never come, cause daddy really hurt my mum
I'm waiting for a prince that will never come, that will never come

You broke me down, resentment led me round for years
But what if all this time it's really shifted gears
And I am the tallest tower, resilient and clear
Clear of the toxins you fed me for years

You were supposed to guide me watch me grow up
But I learnt on my own how to be strong enough
And I didn't need you I don't need no screw up
Yeah you screwed up

I'm waiting for a prince that will never come, cause daddy really hurt my mum
I'm waiting for a prince that will never come, that will never come

And I will find my prince
In fact, I possibly have he's gentle and doing the best that he can
And if you didn't hurt my Mum her and I may not have won
The greatest gift you'll never win, growth and prosperity
Songbirds with a song to sing

Waiting for a prince that will never come, cause daddy really hurt my mum
Waiting for a prince that will never come, cause daddy really hurt my mum
Waiting for a prince that will never come, cause daddy really hurt my mum
Waiting for a prince that will never come, cause daddy really hurt my
