What Daddies Do

Written by Chris Wallace

V1
I recall her first tumble like it was yesterday
Big scrapes on little knees/ i’d kiss the hurt away
Each and every moment would cut me deep inside
When she’d reach out with tiny hands and tear filled eyes

C
I’d pick her up/ hold her close and let her cry
Do my best to calm her fears and make her smile
Let it go/ don't you know i'm here for you
After all that's what daddies do

V2
Last night I heard the break up of first love way too soon
So when i reached for the ice cream/ i grabbed an extra spoon
She said Dad why cant he love me like you do
I just opened up my arms and tried the only thing i knew

C2
I Picked her up/ held her close and let her cry
Did my best to calm her fears and make her smile
Let it go/ don't you know i'm here for you
After all that's what daddies do

B
We drowned tears with laughter in the bowl of rocky road
Wherever her life takes her/ i pray she’ll always know

C3
I’ll Pick her up/ hold her close and let her cry
Do my best to calm her fears and make her smile
Let it go/ don't you know i'm here for you
After all that's what daddies do
After all that's what daddies do
