Walk down the sidewalk
staring at your feet
Wishing my steps were longer
so by your sides I could keep
hold your hand much bigger
never wanted mine to grow
so I could always fit perfect
inside you palms just so

no one loves me just like you do
no one knows me just like you do
no one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours
you'll always be my father
and i'll always be your joy

Laid me on your belly
nights when mama wasn't home
lightning made me shiver
and you never let me feel alone
I tried to match your breathing
beating my little heart against yours
perfect were the nights we were sleeping
I never want to end what we are

no one loves me just like you do
no one knows me just like you do
no one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours
you'll always be my father
and i'll always be your joy

one day he'll come on bended knee
and ask my love away from thee
and when i give my love to him
you'll always have a place within (repeat)

no one loves me just like you do
no one knows me just like you do
no one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours
you'll always be my father
and i'll always be your joy


If I had a daddy, I'd dance to this . . .

That is absolutely beautiful. I love Chrisette Michele anyway so this song I'm sure sounds lovely.

Same here...that is truly beautiful!

That is so nice. If my dad wasn't a stepper I would consider this. But as it stands we'll be cutting a rug to Earth, Wind, and Fire's "Shining Star" - it our personalities!

Is this a jazzy song? Or is it slow?

Its slow but danceable, a little faster than "if it wasn't for you love" by heather headley.

I just listened to it on napster. Great song! If it weren't so close to the wedding, I would use it.

Wow Ajia, only 19 DAYS!

I'm going to listen to it this weekend. Thanks.
