| I’m getting older now
|
| But I’m younger than you when you took out the house
|
| I’m resting my head where I can
|
| Calling the devil and demons to stay
|
| Outta my way every night
|
| Darkness to me almost looks like a light
|
| And I know I’m in high water
|
| If I’m my father’s daughter
|
| And I am
|
| There’s some things I don’t care to see
|
| The frame of your mouth when it’s lying to me
|
| So I’ll close my eyes to the sight
|
| And picture an angel who fights the good fight
|
| Oh wishing that I was someone
|
| Giving the lesson to know how to love
|
| I know I’m in high water
|
| If I’m my father’s daughter
|
| And I am
|
| Who am I to treat you this way?
|
| Air out my teeth and bleed you of grace
|
| You are mine, and I’m yours just the same
|
| Oh and I wouldn’t trade it for anything
|
| No, I wouldn’t trade it for anything
|
| I’ll say what I’ll say and I’ll mean it
|
| I’ll find peace of mind from my pain and you’ve seen it
|
| Cause I am a woman with childish ways
|
| Kicking and screaming and waiting for your embrace
|
| Chasing me all round the yard
|
| You know I’m running to make this hard
|
| You know I’m in high water
|
| If I’m my father’s daughter
|
| And I know I’m in high water
|
| If I’m my father’s daughter
|
| And I am
|
| I am |
