Soldier's Daughter Lyrics

The song Soldier's Daughter is performed by Tonic in the album named Lemon Parade in the year 1996 .



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
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
Sweet soldier's daughter
The sweet soldier's daughter
