Songs for a Father Daughter Dance

I leaned in towards those pictures to get a better look at one
When I heard a voice behind me say “Now, ain’t she something, son?”
I said “Yes, she quite a woman”
and he just stared at me
Then I realized that in his eyes she would always be

Playing Cinderella
Riding her first bike
Bouncing on the bed and looking for a pillow fight
Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin
Dancing with her dad, looking up at him
In her eyes I’m Prince Charming
But to him I’m just some fella
riding in and stealing Cinderella

He slapped me on the shoulder
Then he called her in the room
When she threw her arms around him
That’s when I could see it too

Playing Cinderella
Riding her first bike
Bouncing on the bed and looking for a pillow fight
Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin
Dancing with her dad, looking up at him
If he gives me a hard time
I can’t blame the fella
I’m the one who’s stealing Cinderella

2-You’ll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You’ll be here in my heart, always

Why can’t they understand the way we feel?
They just don’t trust, what they can’t explain
I know we’re different but, deep inside us
We’re not that different at all
(repeat 1..AND)

Don’t listen to them, ’cause what do they know?
We need each other, to have, to hold
They’ll see in time, I know
When destiny calls you, you must be strong
I may not be with you, but you’ve got to hold on
They’ll see in time, I know, we’ll show them together

(repeat 1..BELIEVE ME..I’LL BE THERE)
(repeat 2..YOU’LL BE HERE IN MY HEART..I’LL BE WITH YOU)

Always, I’ll be with you
I’ll be there for you, always, always and always
Just look over your shoulder (3)
I’ll be there, always
