Well I want you to notice To notice when I'm not around And I know that your eyes see straight through me And speak to me without a sound I want to hold you Protect you from all of the things I've already endured I want to show you Show you all the things that this life has in store for you I'll always love you The way that a father should love his daughter When I walked out this morning I cried as I walked to the door I cried about how long I'd be away for I cried about leaving you all alone I want to hold you Protect you from all of the things I've already endured I want to show you Show you all the things that this life has in store for you I'll always love you The way that a father should love his daughter Sweet Zoe Jane.... Sweet Zoe Jane..... So I wanted to say this Because I wouldn't know where to begin To explain to you what I have been through To explain where your daddy has been I want to hold you Protect you from all of the things I've already endured I want to show you Show you all the things that this life has in store for you I'll always love you The way that a father should love his daughter Sweet Zoe Jane...... Sweet Zoe Jane.......
