Daddy (Album Version) - Beyoncé

Lyrics by：Mark Batson/Beyoncé Knowles

Composed by：Mark Batson/Beyoncé Knowles

Produced by：Beyoncé Knowles/Mark Batson

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 excited I was 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 thank you for loving me

Daddy daddy daddy

Daddy daddy daddy

Daddy daddy daddy

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 like my daddy

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
