Father's Daughter Songtext

von honeyhoney

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
