Текст песни Daughter (Live) - Ben Rector

Are you okay if I just sing this song real quick?
(Yeah, wait, loud)
I sing generally pretty loud
(Sing loud again)
Okay, here we go

Lately, I've been going through changes
I've been doing a little light rearranging
Blew up my whole life, I'm not complaining
Just thought I'd start with some honesty
I used to only be concerned with my career getting bigger
But I started zooming out and seeing big pictures
I started focusing on my father figure
And I see things a little differently

'Cause I got a daughter now
Oh, the most perfect tiny human
I got a daughter now
No idea what I'm doing
But the way that she smiles and the way that she laughs
Gives me some kind of peace like I never had
I guess I see what all the fuss is about
'Cause I got a daughter
I got a daughter now

If I'm honest, I love it
I wear dumb clothes now, and I'm like, "What of it?"
There are innumerable things that I'm no longer above
But that's more than fine with me
So if that jar's stuck, hand it here, I can handle it
If that knee's scraped, baby, I can examine it
Judge me 'til you walk a mile in my socks and my sandals, kid

'Cause I got a daughter now
She's everything to me
I got a daughter now
And suddenly, I cry at movies
But the way that she smiles and the way that she laughs
Gives me some kind of peace like I never had
I guess I see what all the big whoop is about
'Cause I got a daughter
I got a daughter now

So like I said, I started making some changes
I said no to some radio stations
I made some time for some family vacations
'Cause that's who I wanna be
(Woo, let's go!)
'Cause my biggest fan doesn't care if I'm famous
Even though you people know what my name is
So like I said, I started making some changes
To be who I wanna be

'Cause I got a daughter now
She's everything to me
I got a daughter now, yeah
Suddenly, I cry at movies
But the way that she smiles and the way that she laughs
Gives me some kind of peace like I never have had
I guess I see a little bit differently now
Guess I understand what all the fuss is about
'Cause I got a daughter
I got a daughter now

(Yeah)
