Father And Daughter Lyrics

If you leap awake in the middle of a bad dream

And for a fraction of a second you can't remember where you are

Just open your window and follow your memory upstream

To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star

I believe the light that shines on you will shine on you forever

And though I can't guarantee there's nothing scary hiding under your bed

I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard of a golden retriever

And never leave til I leave you with a sweet dream in your head

I'm gonna watch you shine

Gonna watch you grow

Gonna paint a sign 

So you'll always know

As long as one and one is two

There will never be a father loved his daughter more than I love you

Trust you intuition

It's just like goin' fishin

You cast your line and hope you get a bite

But you don't need to waste your time

Worry'n bout' the marketplace

Try to help the human race

strugglin to survive it's harshest night

I'm gonna watch you shine

Gonna watch you grow

Gonna paint a sign 

So you'll always know

As long as one and one is two

There will never be a father loved his daughter as much as I love you

I'm gonna watch you shine

Gonna watch you grow

Gonna paint a sign 

So you'll always know

As long as one and one is two

There will never be a father loved his daughter as much as I love you
