From the moment that a baby girl
Is born into this world
A man starts to change, do crazy things
Like paintin' the bedroom pink

To hold somethin' so small and frail
Absolutely scares the hell
Out of any guy no matter how brave
He thinks he might be

When she looks up at him like he's Superman
She's got him in the palm of her hand

Daddies and daughters
Have somethin' no one else does
Unique and special kind of love
Is hard to explain how men
Tough as leather
Can turn to velvet when she smiles
Worlds apart as they may seem
There's nothin' like the love between
Daddies and and daughters

Before she even gets to second grade
He's already startin' to think
About all the boys, what's on their minds
'Cause he was one once too

She's sixteen and headed to the dance
He says, "You ain't goin' dressed like that"
She slams her door, starts to cry
Thinks he ain't got a clue

She'll finally understand it one day
She'll even see the love in his mistakes

Daddies and daughters
Have somethin' no one else does
Unique and special kind of love
Is hard to explain how men
Tough as leather
Can turn to velvet when she smiles
Worlds apart as they may seem
There's nothin' like the love between
Daddies and and daughters

No one she ever meets will ever be
Good enough for her for him

Daddies and daughters
Have somethin' no one else does
Worlds apart as they may seem
There's nothin' like the love between
Daddies and daughters
