Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
|
They've been writing our story before there was one
|
From the day you arrive, till you walk, till you run
|
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
|
They can offer advice that you don't wanna hear
|
Words that cut like a knife and still ring in your ear
|
You think of them ignorant, they think of you arrogant
|
If you need evidence, who gave you confidence?
|
A snap of the finger and you're not a child
|
But you're still holding on as you walk down the aisle
|
When they give you away to hear someone else say
|
That someone will love you till their dying day
|
Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
|
They've been writing our story before there was one
|
From the day you arrive till you walk, till you run
|
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
|
And that's the story of love
|
You can choose to remember or choose to forget
|
If they took you to school or they tucked you in bed
|
You can say it don't matter, you won't do the same
|
You'd think no one noticed when you looked away
|
Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
|
They've been writing our story before there was one
|
From the day you arrive till you walk, till you run
|
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
|
Now they're getting older and you ain't so young
|
So you take care of them like your daughters and sons
|
You can ask for forgiveness, they could ask for the same
|
Forget all the anguish, the heartache, the pain
|
Wherever you go or wherever you've been
|
It's them that is with you and that's you that's with them
|
Fathers and daughters and mothers and sons
|
As one story ends another's, another's begun
|
Oh, fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
|
They've been writing our story before there was one
|
From the day you arrive till you walk, till you run
|
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
|
From hello to goodbye that's the story of love
|
That's the story of love |
