This is a revised version of a song I posted a while back. Human vocals this time.
It's about a girl who never got to know her father, because he died young.

I Know I Would’ve Loved You
by Jennifer Katusha and Kevin Rooney
Vocals: uncredited
Verse 1
You were number four out of five
Always up for a good time
Lived like you had nothing to lose
Deep down I think maybe you knew
32 was all you were gonna get
So you lived life wild with no regrets
If you were at a party everyone came
And everyone always knew your name
Pre-chorus
I look at your picture every once in a while
Those sky blue eyes and that movie-star smile
Chorus
I bet you would have laughed out loud
If you caught me breaking the rules
You’d wink and say that’s my girl
And keep it between us two
You’d talk about the best days you’d ever had
Telling the jokes that always make me laugh
You were the one I never knew
But I know I would've loved you
Verse 2
I sure do love it when
I hear stories from your friends
My favorite one that was ever told
Hold me tight when I was feeling sad
I find myself thinkin’ about
How much life would be different now
If you had never gone out that night
If you had never taken that drive
Chorus
I bet you would have laughed out loud
If you caught me breaking the rules
You’d wink and say that’s my girl
And keep it between us two
You’d talk about the best days you’d ever had
Hold me tight when I was feelin’ sad
You were the one I never knew
But I know I would've loved you
Bridge
With the sound of an engine revving
Thundering through a small town
I know you're flying down those streets of gold
But if you were here right now
Chorus
I bet you would have laughed out loud
If you caught me breaking the rules
You’d wink and say that’s my girl
And keep it between us two
You’d talk about the best days you’d ever had
Tell me how much you loved being my dad
You were the one I never knew
But I know I would 've loved you
Outro
The one I never knew
And I like to think
You would have loved me too
