Daddy

Daddy always says when I hurt he hurts twice as much
Tucks me into bed shows me he is there for us
Life's a little easier when you're talking to a kid
La da dee da

Daddy pays the bills but he's always so behind
Momma cooks the meals as she drinks glasses of wine
Life's a little easier when you're talking to a kid
La da dee da

Daddy I'm in high school now haven't seen your face in days
But when I do you're in the best mood and we laugh our cares away
Dad I'm getting married will you walk me down the aisle
Leaving home's a little scary but this man is the love of my life
Daddy I'm in trouble now my husband wasn't true
I'm afraid to lose the life I have and I don't know what to do
Dad good news this time we're going to reconcile
Gonna make a better life and one day have a child
Dad I know you're upset but I'm a woman now
You're gonna have to trust my decisions and still be there if I hit the ground
Daddy why do you stay away
Your daughter shouldn't have to choose between her father and her husband
What happened to "when I hurt, you hurt even more than I do"

Because you're hurting me more than I've ever been hurt
I know you don't believe my marriage can work
But you and Mom, you didn't even try
You lost her and our home because you didn't put up a fight
I've learned from your mistakes and I'm trying to do better
And after all my pain the most unpredicted weather was you
You're a coward
I thought you'd always be there
Seems like you don't love me anymore
Now that I'm grown and have thoughts of my own
You can't even bring yourself to come to my shows

But I guess life's a little easier when you're talking to a kid
La da dee da
Daddy it's been one year now
Haven't seen you in two years now
Dad
