Lyrics

When I was only seven you left me all alone
You took with you everything I knew and everything I’d know
And then you left me
Like a tear from my eye you left me

Then you came and got your things took me on a long drive
You asked me if I knew how to say goodbye
And then you left me
Like a child leaves the womb you left me

How was I supposed to know how to dance my first dance
How was I supposed to say no thank you
How was I supposed to feel all the love from your arms
How was I supposed to say I love you
How how was I
How how was I
Daddy

Seven more years passed bye still I heard no word from you
Didn’t know what to think or how to feel about you
Cuz you left me
And I don’t know what to do you left me

How was I supposed to know how to dance my first dance
How was I supposed to say no thank you
How was I supposed to feel all the love from your arms
How was I supposed to say I love you
How how was I
How how was I
Daddy

When you search into your heart and you look into your soul
And you find an empty place and nowhere to go
Oh you’ll find me
Like the river finds its shore you’ll find me

How was I supposed to know how to dance my first dance
How was I supposed to say no thank you
How was I supposed to feel all the love from your arms
How was I supposed to say I love you
How how was I
How how was I
Daddy

How was I supposed to know how to dance my first dance
How was I supposed to say no thank you
How was I supposed to feel all the love from your arms
How was I supposed to say I love you
How how was I
How how was I
Daddy
