Daughter

(альбом: The Joy Of Music - 2022)

Are you okay if I just sing this song real quick?
Yeah, like loud
I sing generally pretty loud
Sing loud again
Ok, here we go

Lately I've been going through changes
I've been doing a little light rearranging
Blew up my whole life, I'm not complaining
Just thought I'd start with some honesty

I used to only be concerned with my career getting bigger
I started zooming out and seeing big pictures
I started focusing on my father figure and I see things a little differently

'Cause I got a daughter now
The most perfect tiny human
I got a daughter now
No idea what I'm doing
But the way that she smiles and the way that she laughs
Gives me some kind of peace like I never had
I guess I see what all the fuss is about
'Cause I got a daughter
I got a daughter now

And if I'm honest I love it
I wear dumb clothes now and I'm like what of it
There are innumerable things that I'm no longer above
That's more than fine with me, yeah

If that jar is stuck hand it here I can handle it
If that knee's scraped baby I can examine it
Judge me till you walk a mile in my socks and my sandals, kid

'Cause I got a daughter now
And she is everything to me
I got a daughter now
And suddenly I cry in movies
And the way that she smiles and the way that she laughs
Gives me some kind of peace like I never had
Guess I see what all the big whoop is about
'Cause I got a daughter
I got a daughter now

Yeah, I got a daughter now

Like I said I started making some changes
I said no to some radio stations
I made some time for some family vacations
'Cause that's who I wanna be
'Cause my biggest fan doesn't care if I'm famous
Even though the people know what my name is
Yeah like I said I started making some changes
To be who I want to be

'Cause I got a daughter now
And she is everything to me
I got a daughter now
And no idea what I'm doing
But the way that she smiles and the way that she laughs
Gives me some kind of peace like I never have had
I guess I see a bit different than now, oh yeah
I guess I understand what all the fuss is about
'Cause I got a daughter
I got a daughter now

I got a daughter now
