When I came up with the concept for this song, it was originally for two friends
of mine...two different friends (who do not know one another), going through two
completely different trials. But somehow, the words describe their lives both
literally and metaphorically. After writing this song, I also realized that it
described my life as well, and that it could mean so many things to so many
different women... going through many different trials and hardships. But no
matter the circumstances, one thing will always be true... He will always be
there (answering every prayer...even when we don't realize it). This turned out
to be a much more important song than I had first realized. It's not just for my
two precious friends, but for any woman who has ever gone through any difficult
situation.
She was born into a perfect world
Nothing wanting for "Daddy's Little Girl"
She lived her life in a fairy tale,
Happy endings, and all is well
In her dreams she's a queen
All she wants is to hear him say
All she needs is on the way
Everytime she turns around he's there (with everything she wants)
All she has is everything
All she sees is all he brings
Every wish comes true, and that's all she wants
He was taken away so suddenly
She awoke to the harsh reality
All of her castles were made of sand
Shattered dreams slipped through her hand
All alone, on her own
All she wants is another day
All she needs is to find her way
Everytime she turns around he's gone
All she has is emptiness
All she sees is a hopeless mess
What she had with him is all she wants
The loss and pain lead her to pray (la la la la la la la la)
"Give me the courage just to live another day"
Accepting hardship as a friendship (la la la la la la la la)
Shows her the way where she can find peace at the end
All at once she calls His name
All the hurt just fades away
Now she's found her everything
In the arms of the King of Kings...
All she wants is to hear Him say
All she needs is on the way
Everytime she turns around He's there (answering every prayer)
All she has is everything
All she sees is all He brings
Everyday is new with Him, and that's all she wants
Everyday is new with Him, and that's all she wants
