Chris Watts

My Daddy is a hero
He helps me grow up strong
He helps me snuggle too
He reads me books
He ties my shoes
You’re a hero through and through
My daddy daddy I love you
Once upon a time…
Once upon a time
In the darkest of lands
There was a lady
Who couldn’t see the light
Her demons were strong
She built her own cage
But one day her savior
Came in through the night
They fell in love
And he made her his bride
A family was all that
Her heart desired
The years brought a first
And a second young child
The third was to follow
And complete their lives
It’s bedtime, tuck the babies in
Bedtimes stories and lullabies we sing
It will never be the same, the last time I know
I knew that day before
Appearances are deceptive
And suddenly one day
A hero’s demeanor
Had started to change
Something was off
Something was strange
It seemed like his feelings
Had faded away
She cried herself
To sleep every night
Afraid of losing
And saying goodbye
She would have fought
But he denied
Drawn to a mistress
He wanted a new life
It’s bedtime, tuck the babies in
Bedtimes stories and lullabies we sing
It will never be the same, the last time I know
I knew that day before
It’s bedtime, tuck the babies in
(No Daddy, no, Daddy, please don’t)
It’s bedtime, tuck the babies in
(mommy nearby)
It’s bedtime, tuck the babies in
It’s bedtime, tuck the babies in
No Daddy, no, Daddy, please don’t
(mommy nearby)
