Daddy

I remember when you used to take me on a bike ride everyday 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) Because you loved me, I overcome, yeah And I'm so proud of what you've become 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 understood my fears and you protected me 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 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) 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 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 Love is overwhelming Lord, why did you pick me? Can't stop my tears from falling I love you so much daddy (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 replace my daddy
