Daughter Lyrics by EXES

Once More, with Feeling

2019

[Verse 1]
I'm at the age where I should settle down
Buy a house along the way
'Cause every road is almost figured out
And your voice started to fade
It's not that I don't feel it anymore
It's just with him it's not the same
So when I have myself a baby girl
I'll take her back when I was

[Pre-Chorus]
Seventeen, Halloween, swimming at my friend's house
Sweetest dream, make my world stop

[Chorus 1]
Oh, when I float in water, I
Can almost feel you
I will tell my daughter of
The boy who loved me first
The boy who loved me first
You'll always be the first

[Verse 2]
I'm hoping one day she will fall in love
With somebody bold like you
And maybe one day when she's old enough
I'll talk about when I was

[Pre-Chorus]
Seventeen, Halloween, swimming at my friend's house
Sweetest dream, make my world stop

[Chorus 2]
Oh, when I float in water, I
Can almost feel you
I will tell my daughter of
The boy who loved me first
'Fore anyone else
'Fore I let my heart drown
Looking for us
The boy who loved me first
'Fore anyone else
'Fore I let the wave elevate, save me
Looking for us
The boy who loved me first

[Bridge]
The older I get
The less I regret
The closer I feel to death
The older I get
The less I regret
The closer I feel to

[Pre-Chorus]
Seventeen, Halloween, swimming at my friend's house
Sweetest dream, make my world stop

[Chorus 2]
Oh, when I float in water, I
Can almost feel you
I will tell my daughter of
The boy who loved me first
'Fore anyone else
'Fore I let my heart drown
Looking for us
The boy who loved me first
'Fore anyone else
'Fore I let the wave elevate, save me
Looking for us

[Outro]
Oh, when I float in water, I
Can almost feel you
I will tell my daughter of
The boy who loved me first
