Lyrics

I saw you in my dreams
Our meeting foretold
Just had to wait patiently
To find your old soul

You tested every door
Waiting for me to leave
But I was building foundations
While you wore your heart on your sleeve

You chose me as your father
Though I didn't give you your name
Blood may not connect us
But love runs through our veins

You're my daughter by decision
Not by accidental birth
I found my heart in choosing you
My child upon this earth

I found your spoon beside the toaster
Your bowl still warm with milk
No note required, no thank you needed
Just the life that we have built

You chose me as your father
Though I didn't give you your name
Blood may not connect us
But love runs through our veins

You're my daughter by decision
Not by accidental birth
I found my heart in choosing you
My child upon this earth

The house went still, the world grew quiet
When that one word finally fell
Not step, not him, just Dad
The loudest sound of all
Yeah, you finally let me in
