Linda Davis – In Pictures lyrics

(Joe Doyle/Bobby E. Boyd)

Heæ?¯ got her photograph
On a stand by his bed
Two on the mantle
And a thousands in his head
He canæ?° believe how fast sheæ?¯ changing
It ainæ?° supposed to be like this
Every time he looks at her
He sees how much he missed

He missed her first steps
Her first words
And I love you daddy

Oh, it hurts him so
To watch his baby grow

He sends the money down
Does his best to do his part
But it canæ?° compare
To what he pays with his heart
Thereæ?¯ still one unanswered question
That weighs heavy on his mind
Will she ever understand
When he tells her why

He missed her first steps
Her first words
And I love you daddy

It takes all he has to keep the hurt inside
What he wouldnæ?° give if he could turn back time

He missed her first steps
Her first words
And I love you daddy
