There for You
Written by Jeff Heller © (P) Hellersongs BM
Looking back, not knowing how you felt.
A time gone by,
It makes my heart melt.
You asked me why I missed your dance,
That we never had.
And you asked me why when I missed your feelings when you were sad
There are things in life we can control
There are things in life we cannot
There are times in life that are blue
There are times in life that are true
What I always wanted is to be there for you
While writing this song
I can express how I feel
I watched you grow up
And at times, it was surreal
While you were growing up
The times we had together
I remember your smile.
Your silky blond hair
And bright blue eyes
And you, without a care
<1st Bridge>
Even now, even now
There are things in life we can control
There are things in life we cannot
There are things in life we can control
There are things in life we cannot
Even now, even now
I remember a time
We drove by the bay
Saw the waves crashing
And you wanted to stay
So I pulled the car over
To let you run on the beach
You watched the waves in amazement
Trying to catch them, but you couldn’t reach.
There are things in life we can control
There are things in life we cannot
There are things in life we can control
There are things in life we cannot
There are times in life that are blue
There are times in life that are true
What I always wanted is to be there for you
Now that you're older, you’re still my little girl
Come dance with me now
And I’ll give you a twirl
There are things in life we can control
There are things in life we cannot
There are things in life we can control
There are things in life we cannot
There are times in life that are blue
There are times in life that are true
What I always wanted is to be there for you
To my daughter, you are so beautiful.
I love you very much.

Signed, Daddy
