Michelle Bonilla - Daddy's Song lyrics

rate me

I met you for the first time

And you showed me how to live

In your arms

I run to for shelter

You became my daddy for the first time

I can still remember

When I was a little girl

Sisters in a circle

Mama told us stories through the afternoon

And Daddy’s seat was always empty

Tears dropped on my pillow

Prayers went to Heaven

Waiting for him by the window

So close to me yet

Slowly we grew apart

That’s when

I met you for the first time

And you showed me how to live

In your arms

I run to for shelter

You became my daddy for the first time

I understood his reasons

I know his heart was bleeding

But he didn’t see that I was hurting too

Helpless, naïve, and confused

Daddy, I wish that I could have helped you

Suffering in silence

Patiently hoping

That one day you would be free

I’ll never stop believing

And cryin’ on my knees

N’ that’s when I (extend)

I met you for the first time

And you showed me how to live

In your arms

I run to for shelter

You became my daddy for the first time

Daddy I love you

I know you love me

And I’m thankful for the lessons that you taught me

The faces of time have changed

I’ve blossomed into a lady

And I’m stronger than before

I’m wiser now too

Because I’ve learned to

Trust in God no matter what the cost

Because I loved you, I learned to love him

And know I’ve found my first love

Ooooohhhhhh

I met you for the first time

And you showed me how to live

In your arms

I run to for shelter

You became my daddy for the first time

I met you for the first time

And you showed me how to live

In your arms

I run to for shelter

You became my daddy for the first time

<br />
