Dear Daddy Songtext
von Harper Grae

Dear daddy, it′s Father's Day again
I wonder if you ever stop and wonder where I′ve been
Dear daddy, it's been so awful long
Your little girl has grown, dear daddy

This wounded bird you left so long ago
Somehow I still miss you so

And mama loved you for a moment
A moment she'd always regret
For you, I guess I was an omen
Someone you tried hard to forget


And you never saw me coming
An un-mistakable mistake
I was born and you went running
Oh, and you kept running
And you′re still running

Dear daddy, I′m up in Birmingham
I wonder if you ever stop and wonder who I am
Dear daddy, where have the years all gone?
Hope keeps hanging on, dear daddy

This wounded bird you left so long ago
Somehow I still miss you so

I need to move on now
But I keep on looking back
We're still flesh and blood
And nothing changes that

This wounded bird you left so long ago
She′s singing now, but I still miss you so
Dear daddy, I still miss you so
