While the world slept,
My father stayed awake.
With all his might left,
He stayed just for my sake.
He sang to me,
Patted me to sleep.
I could feel his eyes on me
Watching me breathe.
I remember being in his arms,
On his lap as a baby
Holding him tight with my charms,
He’d say I was his little lady.
I grew up, I grew tall and I grew
Stronger, weaker, colder, warmer
There my father stood as he knew
I’m a handful, but I’ll always remain his loving daughter.
