Not Going Nowhere

I heard from your mom that you cried out last night For a certain someone to turn on the lights You found that someone was not by your side And mom had to wipe away your tears You asked her, "Why dad isn't here?" When she starts to tell you that dad's working late You say, "What come, every day of the week?" But she answers you with, "Why? Go back to sleep" Your heart tells you something has changed Why they've been acting so strange? Well, I'm here to tell you, you don't have to fear 'Cause your daddy loves you, I'm not going nowhere And I won't give you up, not gon' walk away When it comes to you and I, nothing's gonna change I'm here to tell you, you don't have to be scared I'm not going no, I'm not going nowhere It's true that I live in a whole different house But that doesn't mean that I won't come around I'm still best of friends with your mom, have no doubt We'll still make time to hang out I promise I won't let you down (let you down) I've got a room with your name on the door Your favorite things you could ever ask for Then best of all, if you cry out at night I'll be the one by your side (by your side) Someone to help dry your eyes Well, I'm here to tell you, you don't have to fear, no, no 'Cause your daddy loves you, I'm not going nowhere, oh no And I won't give you up, not gon' walk away When it comes to you and I, nothing's gonna change I'm here to tell you, you don't have to be scared 'Cause I'm not going no, I'm not going nowhere I know you feel a little scared (oh, yeah) I know you think it's not fair (no, it's not fair) You think it's all your fault (all your fault) but it's not, I swear If it wasn't for you, things could never be so cool So I thank you for being the one in my life That showed both of us that we did something right Well, I'm here to tell you, you don't have to fear (oh, you don't have to fear) 'Cause your daddy loves you (your daddy loves you, your daddy loved you, yeah) I'm not going nowhere (I'm not going anywhere, no, no) And I won't give you up, I'm not gon' walk away When it comes to you and I, nothing's gonna change I'm here to tell you, you don't have to be scared (you don't have to be) (You don't have to be, you don't have to be scared) Well, I'm here to tell you (oh, I'm here to tell you, oh) You don't have to fear (no, you don't have to fear, no) 'Cause your daddy loves you (your daddy loves you, yes he does, oh, yes he does) I'm not going nowhere (I'm not going nowhere) And I won't give you up (no) not gon' walk away (no) Comes to you and I, nothing's gonna change I'm here to tell you, you don't have to be scared (you don't, no) 'Cause I'm not going no, I'm not going nowhere
