lyrics

I was daddy’s girl
Always by his side
I loved to make him laugh
Take his legs for a ride
He waited such a long time
For me to arrive
But we barely had a minute
Before he had to say goodbye

So with a handful of memories
And a whole lot of tears
I spent my days looking for him
And those days turned years
Three times down aisle
Three dead end roads
Saying I do
When I didn’t really know

But when I stopped
Running, hiding, fighting,
Wondering what was missing
I could hear a voice
Saying Sherrie, please listen

You have a father
I’ve been here all along
My arms have been around you
You’ve never been alone
Each and every step
I’ve been guiding you home
You’ve been so strong
Thinking you were all on your own
But you have a father
I’ve been here all along

Now daddy couldn’t be there
When I met the one I loved the most
But I had the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost
Right by my side
When he took my hand
Daddy’s little girl
Finally found her man

When I stopped
Running, hiding, fighting
Not a thing was missing
I finally had the heart
I had the heart to listen

I have a father
He’s been there all along
His arms have been around me
I’ve never been alone
Each and every step
He’s been guiding me home
I don’t have to be so strong
I’m not on my own
I have a father
He’s been here all along

I was daddy’s girl
Always by his side
I loved to make him laugh
Take his legs for a ride
