Gord Bamford - My Daughter's Father lyrics

rate me

(Byron Hill/Arlos Smith)

I GUESS IT’S HUMAN NATURE

TUGGIN’ AT MY SLEEVE

THAT GETS ME THINKING TOO MUCH

‘BOUT WHAT I’M ‘SPOSED TO BE

I KEEP AIMING HIGHER

LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE

FORGETTING WHAT I NEED TO BE

IS JUST TO BE MYSELF

CHORUS:

IT’S NOT LIKE EVERYBODY’S WAITING

TO SEE IF I’LL GO FAR

IT’S NOT LIKE EVERYBODY’S WATCHING

THOUGH SOMETIMES I THINK THEY ARE

I DON’T HAVE TO CHANGE THE WORLD

I DON’T HAVE TO WALK ON WATER

ALL I HAVE TO BE

IS MY DAUGHTER’S FATHER

SHE’S JUST LIKE HER MAMA

WHEN IT COMES TO ME

COULDN’T FOOL HER IF I TRIED TO

TO HER I’LL ALWAYS BE

NOTHING MORE THAN DADDY

AND WHEN SHE SAYS THAT WORD

IT A WONDERFUL REMINDER

OF WHY I’M ON THIS EARTH

REPEAT CHORUS

A MAN IS OFTEN MEASURED

BY WHAT HE DOES IN LIFE

IT MADE MINE WORTH LIVING

WHEN I REALIZED

REPEAT CHORUS

YEAH ALL I HAVE TO BE

IS MY DAUGHTER’S FATHER
