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
