Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
~#**************#~
Theyve been writing our story before there was one
~#**************#~
From the day you arrive, til you walk, til you run
~#**************#~
There is nothin but pride, there is nothin but love
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
They can offer advice that you dont wanna hear
~#**************#~
Words that cut like a knife and still ring in your ear
~#**************#~
You think of them ignorant, they think of you arrogant
~#**************#~
If you need evidence, who gave you confidence?
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
A snap of the finger and youre not a child
~#**************#~
But youre still holdin on as you walk down the aisle
~#**************#~
When they give you away to hear someone else say
~#**************#~
That someone will love you til their dyin day
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
~#**************#~
Theyve been writing our story before there was one
~#**************#~
From the day you arrive til you walk, til you run
~#**************#~
There is nothin but pride, there is nothin but love
~#**************#~
And thats the story of love
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
You can choose to remember or choose to forget
~#**************#~
If they took you to school or they tucked you in bed
~#**************#~
You can say it dont matter, you wont do the same
~#**************#~
Youd think no one noticed when you looked away
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
~#**************#~
Theyve been writing our story before there was one
~#**************#~
From the day you arrive til you walk, til you run
~#**************#~
There is nothin but pride, there is nothin but love
~#**************#~
[Verse 4]
~#**************#~
Now theyre getting older, and you aint so young
~#**************#~
So you take care of them like your daughters and sons
~#**************#~
You can ask for forgiveness, they could ask for the same
~#**************#~
Forget all the anguish, the heartache, the pain
~#**************#~
[Verse 5]
~#**************#~
Wherever you go or wherever youve been
~#**************#~
Its them that is with you, and thats you thats with them
~#**************#~
Fathers and daughters and mothers and sons
~#**************#~
As one story ends, anothers begun
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
~#**************#~
Theyve been writing our story before there was one
~#**************#~
From the day you arrive til you walk, til you run
~#**************#~
There is nothin but pride, there is nothin but love
~#**************#~
From hello to goodbye, thats the story of love
~#**************#~
Thats the story of love
