Beyonc — Daddy

[Verse 1] I remember when you used to take me on a bike ride every day on the bayou (You remember that? We were inseparable) And I remember when you could do no wrong You'd come home from work and I jumped in your arms when I saw you I was so happy to see you (I was so excited, so happy to see you) [Chorus] Because you loved me, I overcome, yeah And I'm so proud of what you've become, yeah You've given me such security No matter what mistakes I make, you're there for me You cure my disappointments and you heal my pain You understood my fears and you protected me I treasure every irreplaceable memory and that's why I want my unborn son to be like my daddy I want my husband to be like my daddy There is no one else like my daddy And I thank you for loving me Daddy, daddy, daddy... [Verse 2] I still remember the expression on your face When you found out I'd been on a date and had a boyfriend (My first boyfriend, you should've seen your face) I still remember I caught you crying 'cause of my tattoo Could have said "Beyoncé, I told you so" Instead you said you'd get one too (Even my mama said y'all get one just like mine) [Chorus] Words can't express my boundless gratitude for you I appreciate what you do You've given me such security No matter what mistakes, I know you're there for me You cure my disappointments and you heal my pain You understand my fears and you protected me Treasure every extraordinary memory and that's why I want my unborn son to be like my daddy I want my husband to be like my daddy There is no one else like my daddy And I thank you for loving me [Bridge] Even if my man broke my heart today No matter how much pain I'm in, I will be okay 'Cause I got a man in my life that can't be replaced For this love is unconditional, it won't go away I know I'm lucky Know it ain't easy For men who take care of their responsibilities [Chorus] Love is overwhelming Lord, why did you pick me? Can't stop my tears from falling I love you so much, daddy [Outro] (Thank you, you've done so much for me. I love you, daddy.) I get so emotional, daddy, every time I think of you I get so emotional, daddy, every time I think of you There is no one else like my daddy No one else will replace my daddy
