Soldier's Daughter lyrics

Song information

Artist: Tonic

Lyrics

It's the way he looks at you
That says to me
This isn't over
From the outside looking in
You see there's nothing sacred here

Nothing sacred
You can bend
But you can't break

For the reasons out of our control
You try to make it roll
Like a dice away
But you say that you're all empowered here
This is obviously not clear enough
To me
You can bend
But you can't break

Hey little girl keep dancing
Hey little girl keep dancing alone
'Cause there's not enough time in your day
To keep you here

The soldier's daughter
Did your daddy
Did your daddy hurt you
Did he make you feel bad
Did he poison your views
With the water he was raised on
Oh your father's son says hang on
Hang on

Hey little girl
Keep dancing
Hey little girl
Keep dancing alone
'Cause there's not enough time in your life
To stay here
So over the hills he'd climb
Just to see her there in time
Just to watch the sun shine through her dress

The sweet soldier's daughter
The sweet soldier's daughter
