Children need a Daddy br For many, many things: br Like holding them high off the ground br Where the sunlight sings! br br Like being the deep music br That tells them all is right br When they awaken frantic with br The terrors of the night. br br Like being the great mountain br That rises in their heart br And shows them how they might get home br When all else falls apart. br br Like giving them the love br That is their sea and air, br So diving deep or soaring high br They'll always find him there.
