Songtexte Weight of a Girl - WILKES

She was three years old
In those Minnie Mouse ears
Draggin' me down Main Street
With a bag of souvenirs
Ran straight for the castle
Tryin' to see Cinderella
So I picked her up
And let me tell ya

When you got the weight of a girl on your shoulders
You'd do anything to keep her from gettin' older
Cuz you know they'll come a day you can't hold her
As high as you want to
Yea, when you're a father to a daughter
You hope she'll remember everything you taught her
Wish you could hold on a little longer
And life would move slower
With the weight of a girl on your shoulders

I'm losin' sleep
Over things that haven't happened
Like when she grows up
I can't even imagine
Cuz I know that some day
She's gonna get her heart hurt
It's already heavier on me
Than it'll be on her

When you got the weight of a girl on your shoulders
You'd do anything to keep her from gettin' older
Cuz you know they'll come a day you can't hold her
As high as you want to
Yea, when you're a father to a daughter
You hope she'll remember everything you taught her
Wish you could hold on a little longer
And life would move slower
With the weight of a girl on your shoulders

I'll always lift her up
Givin' her all my love
I gotta be strong enough

When you got the weight of a girl on your shoulders
You'd do anything to keep her from gettin' older
Cuz you know they'll come a day you can't hold her
As high as you want to
When you're a father to a daughter
Hope she'll remember everything you taught her
And wish you could hold on a little longer
And life would move slower
With the weight of a girl on your shoulders

Mmm
