Marie Mused - What Daddy Said Lyrics

Daddy told me, "Don't count sins
Because people let those heartaches in
And they wind up cold
And they wind up alone
Oh you know
That people never change"
So many people keeping score
They all forget what life is for
So don't forget
And don't regret
But I never listen to what daddy said

But daddy told me, "Be the just
To those who don't know how to trust
Be more than kind
But don't lose your mind
Cause you know
They can steal your very soul"
People hurt the ones they love
You see it when push comes to shove
They'll leave you cold
And they'll leave you alone
And I should have listened to what daddy said

Daddy told me, "Learn to cope
So you love the lost but don't lose hope
Be kind and warm
And don't cause harm
Cause you know
You might be their only light"
Sometimes I wonder what it's for
Why the pain grows more and more
Then I make a friend
Who needs a hand
And then I think about what daddy said
