Lyrics Chris Watts - SKYND

My daddy is a hero, he helps me grow up strong
He helps me snuggle too, he reads me books
He ties my shoes - you're a hero through and through
My daddy, daddy I love you

Once upon a time...

Once upon a time, in the darkest of lands
There was a lady who couldn't see the light
Her demons were strong, she built her own cage
But one day her savior came in through the night

They fell in love, and he made her his bride
A family was all that her heart desired
The years brought a first, and a second young child
The third was to follow and complete their lives

It's bedtime, tuck the babies in
Bedtimes stories and lullabies we sing
It will never be the same, the last time I know
I knew the day before

Appearances are deceptive, and suddenly one day
A hero's demeanor had started to change
Something was off, something was strange
It seemed like his feelings had faded away

She cried herself to sleep every night
Afraid of losing and saying goodbye
She would have fought, but he denied
Drawn to a mistress, he wanted a new life

It's bedtime, tuck the babies in
Bedtimes stories and lullabies we sing
It will never be the same, the last time I know
I knew the day before

It's bedtime, tuck the babies in
No daddy, no, daddy, please don't
It's bedtime, tuck the babies in
Hide us away, bury mommy nearby

It's bedtime, tuck the babies in

It's bedtime, tuck the babies in

No daddy, no, daddy, please don't
Let's hide us away, bury mommy nearby
