Dear Old Dad – Ed Cash – letras

As a child she remembers bits and piecesBut most of it she’s chosen to blockoutBecause daddy treated her the right wayHe didn’t understand what loving was aboutSo she’s opened her heart to the whole worldHoping someone will come and ease the painShe’s on the edge of a fatal decisionAnd she’s drowning in the middle of the rainShe’s looking for the love she never hadLooking for the love she missed from dear old dadThe world is out to get herAnd she is left fading awayShe starves herself to meet a certain standardBecause the world says she’s got to look so goodHer heart is being eaten on the insideAnd she’d do anything to change it if she couldSee a father’s love is something that we all craveBut something that so few of us receiveIt’s funny that so many feel forgottenWhen all we’ve got to do is just believe(chorus)Now even the best dads fail sometimesBeing human they can only do so muchIf we can’t rely on them to be perfectIt must mean that we were made for Holy touchThat’s why Jesus is the Love we’ve never hadHe is the Love and Way to dear old DadHe is out to love usYes he is out to love usYou’ll never go hungry when you put your trust in HimHe is out to love us, and take us to a place of peace and rest
