Daddy's Girl
Location
My beautiful daughter
She had to grow up too fast
One night everything changed
"Sweetie, the pain won't last."
The funeral came and went
There's a new angel in the sky
She's handled it so well
"Sweetie, you have your Mama's eyes."
Now I'm starting to worry
She's dwelling in the past
It's going to be okay one day
"Sweetie, the pain won't last."
It's been almost a year
I still hear her crying at night
I'm a helpless father
"Sweetie, it's gonna be alright."
She faces her demons
But still smiles everyday
Life knocks us down sometimes
"Sweetie, you're gonna be okay."
Hearing her laugh gives me hope
Seeing her smile gives me peace
She is her Mother's daughter
"Sweetie, someday the pain will cease."
Now it's her Senior year
Time has flown by so fast
I'm so proud of my baby girl
"Sweetie, the pain won't last."

Have to take a minute to figure it out
But true pain, hurt
It's not invincible
Not immortal.
The pain won't last--
You're right.
It takes an open heart to realise these things.
You know more than you think.
