Lyrics
My Darling Daughter.
Verse 1.
Daughter I was there when you were born
and your birth, happened in the early morn,
you were a bright, beautiful, bouncing baby girl
and you were and are your Fathers most precious pearl.
Verse 2.
You were a heart melter at first sight and
I didn't want to let you out of my sight,
your baby look brought much me much joy and happiness and
I couldn't wait to get you blessed.
Verse 3.
My love for you this world cannot hold,
as my love for you is more precious than gold,
I know you probably don't see it my way,
but I can prove it to you if you just let me some day.
(chorus)
darling daughter I love you so
more than you'll ever know
and I just want you to know
no matter where you are or where you go
I your father love you so, I love you so, I love you so,
darling daughter I your father love you so.
Verse 4.
As you grew, you were mischievous and bold and
you always loved my bedtime stories that I told,
everything you did was done with a baby's cheeky smile and
I'm just so proud of you, my loving beautiful child.
Verse 5.
I always wanted to there for you,
but other people close to you
made that totally impossible for me to do,
but I've never forgot or stopped loving you,
so you're welcome to meet me but only if you want to.
Verse 6.
My family and I miss and think of you every day and
we know it will be a hard decision for you
to make on your own some day,
but don't you be afraid of any big bad wolf,
as I your Father will protect you from any kind of goof.
(chorus)
darling daughter I love you so
more than you'll ever know
and I just want you to know
no matter where you are or where you go
I your father love you so, I love you so, I love you so,
darling daughter I your father love you so.
Verse 7.
Things didn't work out between me and your mum and
I know that she has made me out to be a bit of a bum,
for her to say them things is just plain dumb and
her words of poison will never make me succumb.
Verse 8.
Daughter you're a big girl now and you're smart and clever and
I hope you make your own mind up now and forever,
the bad comments you've heard about me are totally untrue,
as the people who make them are regarded as being cuckoo.
Verse 9.
I haven't seen you in a while,
as those who look after you have put me in exile,
but I hope to see your face someday soon,
as I want to sing you this loving tune and
just tell you face-to-face that you're my Darling Daughter and
that I love you huge, yea.
(chorus)
darling daughter I love you so
more than you'll ever know
and I just want you to know
no matter where you are or where you go
I your father love you so, I love you so, I love you so,
darling daughter I your father love you so.
