Daddy

I remember when you used to take me on a bike ride

Every day on the bayou

You remember that? We were inseparable

Inseparable

And I remember when you could do no wrong

You'd come home from work

And I jumped in your arms when I saw you

I was so excited

I was so happy to see you

So happy to see you

So happy to see you

Because you loved me, I overcome, yeah

And I'm so proud of what you've become, yeah

You've given me such security

No matter what mistakes I make, you're there for me

You cure my disappointments, and you heal my pain

You understood my fears, and you protected me

I treasure every irreplaceable memory, and that's why

I want my unborn son to be like my daddy

I want my husband to be like my daddy

There is no one else like my daddy

And I thank you for lovin' me

Thank you

Me

Lovin' me

Lovin', lovin', lovin' me

I still remember the expression on your face

When you found out I'd been on a date and had a boyfriend, oh

My first boyfriend, you should've seen your face

I still remember I caught you cryin' 'cause of my tattoo

Could've said "Beyoncé, I told you so"

Instead, you said you'd get one too

Even my mama said, "Y'all get one just like mine"

Yeah

Words can't express my boundless gratitude for you

I appreciate what you do, whoa

You've given me such security

No matter what mistakes, I know you're there for me

You cure my disappointments, and you heal my pain

You understand my fears, and you protected me

I treasure every extraordinary memory, and that's why

My unborn son to be like my daddy

I want my husband to be like my daddy

There is no one else like my daddy

And I thank you for lovin' me

Thank you

Even if my man broke my heart today

No matter how much pain I'm in, I will be okay (Oh)

'Cause I got a man in my life that can't be replaced

For this love is unconditional, it won't go away

I know I'm lucky (Lucky)

Know it ain't easy

It ain't easy

For men who take care of their responsibilities

Love is overwhelming, Lord, why did you pick me? (Oh)

Can't stop my tears from fallin' (Oh)

I love you so much, Daddy

My unborn son to be like my daddy

Thank you, you've done so much for me

Want my husband to be like my daddy

I love you, Daddy

I am so emotional, Daddy, every time I think of you

There is no one else like my daddy

I am so emotional, Daddy, every time I think of you

And I thank you for lovin' me

There is no one else like my daddy

There is no one else like my daddy

No one else will replace my daddy
