Grown Up Girl

Hi there, daddy, can we have a word?
I wish I was still your little girl
Open arms would fence my universe
Now I'm too old to be saved by you
Slowly taken by the hands of time
And every second yours kept holding mine
But all your work went up in smoke and wine
Oh, I need to be saved by you

Oh, I lost your control
And turned rock-a-bye into rock 'n' roll
Just know when you're fragile and old
I'll hold you like you held me
Tell you all you told me, I will

Mommy's brushing through my morning curls
Always rushing for her boys and girls
And just like daddy, she's too late for work
Oh, I need to be strong like you
Mommy, can I stay in bed all day?
I am sick of all the things they say
Mommy took care of it straight away
Oh, I need to be strong like you

Oh, I lost your control
And turned rock-a-bye into rock 'n' roll
Just know when you're fragile and old
I'll hold you like you held me
Tell you all you told me, I will

Mommy's hands and my daddy's smile
Oh, I hope that I'll make you proud
Though I know there's still much to learn
As grown up girl
