somebody's daughter

Still remember how it felt

When she looked over

The first time she held your gaze

You pretend you aren't thinking twice about her

So you look the other way

It probably wouldn't be this hard

If you were someone else

But there's no one like yourself

I know you're scared to admit

That you feel a little different

You learn just to keep hiding

I know you're scared where you're going

You'd pray it away if you could

So it stops hurting

But there's nothing else like

Hearing her laughter

She gave you so much to learn about her

Know you've been scared all along

That you love somebody's daughter

Just know that there's nothing wrong

Still remember how it felt

When you first noticed

Shifty eyes in the corridors

They're throwing stones without a thought

Now you're convinced

So you pick up where they left off

It probably wouldn't be this hard

If you were someone else

But there's no one like yourself

I know you're scared to admit

That you feel a little different

You learn just to keep hiding

I know you're scared where you're going

You'd pray it away if you could

So it stops hurting

But there's nothing else like

Hearing her laughter

She gave you so much to learn about her

Know you've been scared all along

That you love somebody's daughter

Just know that there's nothing wrong
