My Daughter’s Father Songtext

My Daughter’s Father Songtext
I guess it′s human nature
Tuggin' at my sleeve
That gets me thinking too much
′Bout what i'm 'sposed to be
I keep aiming higher
Like everybody else
Forgetting what i need to be
Is just to be myself
Chorus:
It′s not like everybody′s waiting
To see if i'll go far
It′s not like everybody's watching
Though sometimes i think they are
I don′t have to change the world
I don't have to walk on water
All i have to be
Is my daughter′s father
She's just like her mama
When it comes to me
Couldn't fool her if i tried to
To her i′ll always be
Nothing more than daddy
And when she says that word
It a wonderful reminder
Of why i′m on this earth
Repeat chorus
A man is often measured
By what he does in life
It made mine worth living
When i realized
Repeat chorus
Yeah all i have to be
Is my daughter's father
Tuggin' at my sleeve
That gets me thinking too much
′Bout what i'm 'sposed to be
I keep aiming higher
Like everybody else
Forgetting what i need to be
Is just to be myself
Chorus:
It′s not like everybody′s waiting
To see if i'll go far
It′s not like everybody's watching
Though sometimes i think they are
I don′t have to change the world
I don't have to walk on water
All i have to be
Is my daughter′s father
She's just like her mama
When it comes to me
Couldn't fool her if i tried to
To her i′ll always be
Nothing more than daddy
And when she says that word
It a wonderful reminder
Of why i′m on this earth
Repeat chorus
A man is often measured
By what he does in life
It made mine worth living
When i realized
Repeat chorus
Yeah all i have to be
Is my daughter's father
