father i needed - brianna (annie) andrews lyrics
(verse 1)
mama found her someone when i was just a child
didn’t know if i could trust him, so i kept my distance for a while
he never pushed his way in, just stood steady by her side
and every time i stumbled, he was there to lift me high
(pre*chorus)
i used to tell myself he’d never take that place
but love has a way of proving time can’t erase
(chorus)
since i was smaller than his waist high
he’s been the hand i’ve held through the tears i cried
i hate to admit it, but it’s plain to see
that man mama married has been a father to me
and the way his eyes shine when he calls me his own
shows a pride in his heart i’ve never known
(verse 2)
he taught me how to drive, how to stand on my own two feet
sat through every school play, never once missed a beat
i’d catch him bragging softly to strangers in a line
“this girl right here’s my daughter, and i thank god she’s mine.”
(pre*chorus)
i tried so long to fight what my heart already knew
sometimes family’s chosen, and love makes it true
(chorus)
since i was smaller than his waist high
he’s been the hand i’ve held through the tears i cried
i hate to admit it, but it’s plain to see
that man mama married has been a father to me
and the way his eyes shine when he calls me his own
shows a pride in his heart i’ve never known
(bridge)
he didn’t give me life, but he gave me a home
and the kind of love every daughter should know
(chorus)
since i was smaller than his waist high
he’s been the hand i’ve held through the tears i cried
i hate to admit it, but it’s plain to see
that man mama married has been a father to me
and the way his eyes shine when he calls me his own
shows a pride in his heart i’ve never known
(outro)
mama’s love brought him into our lives
but he’s the father i needed, and i can’t deny
