Hold her and tell her a story
One that'll rock her to sleep
Of oceans chockful
Of pirates and mermaids
And creatures that hide in the deep
Hold her and tell her you love her
That you'll never leave her alone
And even on days when she needs independence
She'll know she can always call home
She never cares when you're angry
But she wishes the world wouldn't anger you so
Oh how often do you give up chasing your dreams
Cuz' it's too much for you to let go
Oh she doesn't complain when you're fighting
She's keeps it all close to the chest
There's a feeling she's missing
She doesn't know how to express
There's a feeling she's missing
She doesn't know how to express
There's a feeling she's missing
She doesn't know how to express
I wish I could tell you it ends well
I wish I could promise you'd stay in her life
But she looks so much like her mother these days
It's hard to put your emotions aside
Oh she doesn't complain when you're fighting
She's keeps it all close to the chest
There's a feeling she's missing
She doesn't know how to express
There's a feeling she's missing
She doesn't know how to express
There's a feeling she's missing
She doesn't know how to express
