Well i want you to notice

to notice when i'm not around

and i know that your eyes see straight through me

and speak to me without a sound



[chorus]



i want to hold you

protect you from all of the things that this liife has in store for you

i'll always love you

the way that a father should love his daughter



when i walked out this morning

i cried as i walked to the door

i cried about how long i'd be away for

i cried about leaving you all alone



[chorus]



sweet zoe jane [x2]



so i wanted to say this

cuz i wouldn't know where to begin

to explain to you what i have been through

to explain where your daddy has been



[chorus]
