Lyrics
My Daughter
Did the earth move or did you just smile
Did time stand still or have you come to sit with me awhile
From the highest mountain stream
There comes the sweetest water
And that?s the kiss on my face of my daughter
Her kiss upon my face
When I first held you in my arms
I vowed my life to keep you safe from harm
How could you know the hardest fall
Would come from your own father
Wipe those tears from your face my daughter
Her tears upon my face
How can I explain when I?m not sure I know myself
Sometimes things happen and they don?t seem fair
Leaving doesn?t mean I don?t love you anymore
But I guess right now these words sound like empty shells
But if you give it time, then time will tell
So did the earth move or did you just smile
Let time do what it will
Won?t you come and sit with me awhile
?Cause every river knows, it ain?t nothing without the water
You are the love of my life my daughter
