Demi Lovato - For The Love Of A Daughter Lyrics

Four years old with my back to the door
All I could hear was the family war
Your selfish hands always expecting more
Am I your child or just a charity award?

You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless, you're hopeless

Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone but I can't let you go
Oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter, oh

It's been five years since we've spoken last
And you can't take back what we never had
Oh, I can be manipulated only so many times
Before even, "I love you" starts to sound like a lie

You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless, you're hopeless

Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone but I can't let you go
Oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter, oh

Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you push me out of your world
Lied to your flesh and your blood
Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved?

Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you throw me right out of your world?
So young when the pain had begun
Now forever afraid of being loved

Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone but I can't let you go
Oh father, please father, oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter

  Four years old with my back to the door,
  All I could hear was the family war.
  Your selfish hands always expecting more.
  Am I your child or just a charity award?
  
  You have a hollowed out heart,
  But it’s heavy in your chest.
  I try so hard to fight it,
  But it’s hopeless, hopeless.
  You’re hopeless.
  
  Oh father, please father
  I’d love to leave you alone, but I can’t let you go.
  Oh father, please father
  Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter.
  
  It’s been 5 years, since we’ve spoken last,
  And you can’t take back what we never had.
  I can be manipulated only so many times.
  Before even “I love you” starts to sound like a lie.
  
  You have a hollowed out heart,
  But it’s heavy in your chest.
  I try so hard to fight it,
  But it’s hopeless, hopeless.
  You’re hopeless.
  
  Oh father, please father
  I’d love to leave you alone, but I can’t let you go.
  Oh father, please father
  Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter.
  
  Don’t you remember I’m your baby girl?
  How could you push me out of your world?
  Lied to your flesh and your blood
  Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved.
  Don’t you remember I’m your baby girl?
  How could you throw me right out of your world?
  So young when the pain had begun,
  Now forever afraid of being loved.
  
  Oh father, please father
  I’d love to leave you alone, but I can’t let you go.
  Oh father, please father
  Oh father, please father
  Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter.
  For the love of a daughter.

  For The Love Of A Daughter was a song written by Demi with John Mayer... It was unreleased.
  Daughters is written and performed by John Mayer, and Demi covered it during her concert, and dedicated it to her step dad.

  where can i find this song!?!?!?

  it's not going to be on her album because she thinks it's too mature for her younger fans so you can't find it anywhere.

  i totally understand her. i'm estranged from my dad as well.
  he was a jerk.
  i haven't seen him in 7 years.
  though it was hard at first,
  i have my mom, and she is the strongest person i know.
