Toni Childs - Daddy's Song lyrics

while you're standing there

I'm standing in a field

in my mind

you can't take that away from me

daddy comes to me

in darkness not in light

why I gave you all my love

and you showed no mercy

you tried to pin me down

with emotion feeling things

a butterfly display

a symbol fall from grace

I'm closing down my heart

I'm putting up the wall

why I gave you all my love

and you showed no mercy

here I sit

looking to the light

in my head

I have the peace of mind

I've lost tonight

there are flowers here

and hills and horses too

I ride in my dreams and

I'm afraid I'll have to go back

go back to the night

daddy holds me tight

I'm losing my mind

I'm losing my head

someone help me now

daddy comes to me

in darkness not in light

why I gave you all my love

and you showed no mercy

I just want to know now

what it is to survive

daddy's song and daddy's lies

I've gotta know (repeat)

what it is

how it happened

I've just got to know now

what it is to survive

daddy's song and daddy's lies

I've gotta know (repeat)

what it is

how it happened

I've just got to know now

what it means to survive

and to live out daddy's lies

I've got to live

I've got to live

I've got to live

I've got to live
