*************************************************************

“Daddy’s Baby Girl”
As I sit here remembering
I look back and see
All the things we did
The time you spent with me

For the first time I felt at home
Looseing all my fears
Feeling comfortable in my skin
Forgeting all my tears

But time has passed
Rushing right by
Unfortunatly things have changed
I have to say with a sigh

Away from you I walked
When you needed me just as bad
As I have ever needed you
But I was just to mad

I’d like to say I’m sorry
Can we try once more
To be a family we both want
There’s so much left in store
Daddy no ones perfect
I don’t expect you to be
I just want you aroud
And to spend time with me

Daddy you are a great person
I’ve always known that to be true
I hope to some day be
As strong a person as you

Please don’t be so hard on your self
And try not to be depressed
I hate to see you sad
I feel like I’ve been blessed

Daddy please don’t worry
I know you think you’ve failed
Everyone messes up
We all get derailed

I know that you love me
And would like to give me the world
But I’m honestly proud of my title
“Daddy’s Baby Girl”
