Story Behind The Song

The words just poured out when I wrote this song, it really came from my heart.

Song Description

He apologizes constantly but then does more things to hurt her.I think this is a song that any woman can identify with because we have all been there at one time or another. It is such a freeing feeling to end a bad relationship that has gone on entirely

Lyrics

WHEN MY FIRST BOYFRIEND BROKE MY HEART
DADDY SAID HE NEVER LIKED HIM FROM THE START

AND HE HELD ME THE WHOLE TIME I WAS CRYING

I DECIDED ON A JOB INSTEAD OF COLLEGE
SAID I DIDN'T NEED A TON OF USELESS KNOWLEDGE

HE DIDN'T APPROVE BUT DIDN'T STOP ME FROM TRYING

AND WHEN LIFE GOT TOUGH
I'D CALL HIM UP:

CHORUS:
CAUSE HE CONQUERED THE MONSTERS UNDER MY BED
AND TAUGHT ME TO LIKE THE THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD
THEN HE STEPPED BACK AND WATCHED MY LIFE UNFOLD

YOU KNOW DADDY I CAN'T FACE THIS WORLD ALONE

I MOVED OUT MY OWN THOUGHT I KNEW IT ALL
WHEN I RAN SHORT OF MONEY I'D GIVE HIM A CALL

AND I DON'T BELIEVE HE EVER SAID I TOLD YOU SO

HE ASKED ME TO WAIT BUT I GOT MARRIED
THE DECISION WAS MADE IN SUCH A HURRY

HE WALKED ME DOWN THE AISLE AND THEN HE LET ME GO

WHEN IT CAME TO AN END
I CALLED HIM UP AGAIN:


CHORUS:
CAUSE HE CONQUERED THE MONSTERS UNDER MY BED
AND TAUGHT ME TO LIKE THE THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD
THEN HE STEPPED BACK AND WATCHED MY LIFE UNFOLD

YOU KNOW DADDY I CAN'T FACE THIS WORLD ALONE






BRIDGE
DADDY ARE YOU THERE? DADDY I AM SCARED
PLEASE HELP ME FIND MY WAY BACK


ONE DAY I CALLED MY DADDY AS I ALWAYS DID
HE GENTLY SAID HONEY YOU'RE NO LONGER A KID

I WON'T ALWAYS BE AROUND TO TAKE YOUR CALL

DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN I TAUGHT YOU TO RIDE YOUR BIKE?
I HUNG ONTO YOUR SEAT AND YOU TOOK FLIGHT

TILL YOU NOTICED I'D LET GO THAT'S WHEN YOU'D FALL

BABY YOU SHOULD KNOW
IT'S BEEN YEARS SINCE I LET GO

HE SAID, I CONQUERED THE MONSTERS UNDER YOUR BED
AND I HELPED YOU TO LIKE THE THOUGHTS IN YOUR HEAD
BUT IT WAS ALWAYS YOU THAT WAS SO STRONG

AT YOUR FIRST GRADE PLAY I CLAPPED THE LOUDEST
GRADUATION DAY I WAS THE PROUDEST
BUT WITHOUT ME YOU COULD HAVE DONE IT ALL ALONG

NO YOU NEVER HAD TO FACE THIS WORLD ALONE
BUT I KNOW YOU COULD HAVE DONE IT ON YOUR OWN
