Oh Daddy, there wasn't anything I needed to be
to make you love me.
Oh Daddy, I should have learned so long ago
that real love is free
If my will was any stronger,
I'd break myself in half.
But what I wanted most
was more than what I had.
Why didn't I see
you wanted me to be still
so I could take a breath,
not so I would stop.
All those other men,
I thought that they were like you.
But kind words aren't enough;
A man's voice is meant to soothe.
Oh Daddy, there was never anything I needed to be
to make you love me.
Oh Daddy, you tried to tell me long ago
that real love is free.
