For the Love of a Daughter

Demi Lovato

1. Four years old with my back to the door
   All I could hear was the family war
   Your selfish hands always expecting more
   Am I your child or just a charity ward
   
*: You have a hollowed out heart
   But it’s heavy in your chest
   I try so hard to find it but it’s hopeless
   Hopeless, you’re hopeless
   
R: Oh, father, please father
   I’d love to leave you alone
   But I can’t let you go
   Oh, father, please father
   Put the bottle down
   For the love of a daughter, oh
   
3. It’s been five years since we’ve spoken last
   And you can’t take back
   What we never had
   Oh, I can be manipulated
   Only so many times, so many times
   Before even I love you
   Starts to sound like a lie
   
*: You have a hollowed out heart...
R: Oh, father, please father...
   
3. Don’t you remember I’m your baby girl
   How could you push me out of your world
   Lied to your flesh and your blood
   Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved
   Don’t you remember I’m your baby girl
   How could you throw me right out of your world
   So young when the pain had begun
   Now forever afraid of being in love
   
R: Oh, father, please father...
