lyrics

DADDY’S GIRL
Kelly Lewis / Alexis Wilson / Jay Clementi

I have his brown hair and his smile
But I don't have his heart
And thinking I would never be a Daddy's girl
Has been the hardest part

Just a baby taking care of babies
While mom was working late like crazy
Then you walked in that night with her
With an open heart and gentle words
That moment forever changed me

And I knew
Love love love
Is thicker than blood
Love love love
Is all that matters in this world
Now finally I get to be
A Daddy's girl

I always thought that my brother
Would have to walk me down the aisle
Now I know with heart and soul
You'll be there tears dripping off your smile

The lessons that I've learned from you are gold
And the morals from the stories that you’ve told
Will always be a part of me, I've waited for so long to see
A loving father with a hero’s soul
Now I know

Love love love
Is thicker than blood
Love love love
Is all that matters in this world
And I finally get to be
A Daddy's girl

It ain’t about the ones that make you
It's about the ones that raise you
I’ve realized that in this life

Love love love
Is thicker than blood
Love love love
Is all that matters in this world
Now finally I get to be
A Daddy's girl
