Yeah but he loves you girl and you know it We're all we got in this When it spins, when it When it whirls, it twirls Two little girls Lookin' puzzled, in a I know confusing you Daddy's always on the move, always on the news I try to keep you from it but somehow it seems The harder I try to do that, the more it backfires on me All the things growing up his that he had to see Daddy don't want you to see but you see as much as he did We did not plan it to be this way, mother and me But things have so bad between us I don't see us ever being together ever Like we used to be we were teenagers But then of course everything happens for a reason I it was never meant to be But it's just something we have no control and that's what destiny is But no more worries, rest head and go to sleep Maybe one day we'll up and this will all just be a dream
