My daddy is a hero, he helps me grow up strong
He helps me snuggle too, he reads me books
He ties my shoes - you′re a hero through and throughMy daddy, daddy I love you
Once upon a time...
Once upon a time, in the darkest of lands
There was a lady who couldn't see the light
Her demons were strong, she built her own cage
But one day her savior came in through the night
They fell in love, and he made her his bride
A family was all that her heart desired
The years brought a first, and a second young child
The third was to follow and complete their lives
It′s bedtime, tuck the babies in
Bedtimes stories and lullabies we sing
It will never be the same, the last time I know
I knew the day before
Appearances are deceptive, and suddenly one day
A hero's demeanor had started to change
Something was off, something was strange
It seemed like his feelings had faded away
She cried herself to sleep every night
Afraid of losing and saying goodbye
She would have fought, but he denied
Drawn to a mistress, he wanted a new life
It's bedtime, tuck the babies in
Bedtimes stories and lullabies we sing
It will never be the same, the last time I know
I knew the day before
It′s bedtime, tuck the babies in
No daddy, no, daddy, please don′t
It's bedtime, tuck the babies in
Hide us away, bury mommy nearby
It′s bedtime, tuck the babies in
It's bedtime, tuck the babies in
No daddy, no, daddy, please don′t
Let's hide us away, bury mommy nearby
