Mary J. Blige - Father In You lyrics

Ooooh Oooooooh Oooh oohh Can I talk to you baby? When I was a little girl I didn't have a father And that's why I'm leaning on you When I was a baby I didn't get a hug From daddy that's Why I need a hug from you Oooh it's not easy And I thank you for putting up with me When u don't have a daddy's love (To say that you) to say that I'm you're little girl (Are his little girl) Oh why didn't you love me? (And give you the love) I need love yeh yeh yeh (You really deserve) And I believe I deserve and that's why oh That's why I need the father in you (I need the father in you baby) That's why I need a father in you (Please don't hurt me please) That's why I need a father in you (Oh that's why I really need you) That's why I need a father in you (Please be true) Whoa things got bad to the point where mummy couldn't hold us down And that's when it hurt me so much to see her (To see her cry) oh don't cry mum don't cry mum (Each and every night) We're gunna be alright That's what I used to say (I said that's okay) That I would try to take his place (But it was too hard) it was so hard Trying to be a man not a woman (And that's why I need the father in you) Id put my trust in you babe (That's why I need a father in you) Please don't let me down (That's why I need a father in you) woah I-I-I I need the father in you babe hold my hand (That's why I need the father in you) Because we never had one at home No no no no As a little girl So I understand why daddy couldn't be there Coz it's so obvious no body taught him how to be a father either understand that I need a father. understands coz she really need a father the father in you my friend She really needed a father, the father in you When your wife is speaking fellas pay attention yeh Don't ignore her Oooooooooooooooooohhh I really need the father in you
