Like My Daddy Did

I found a little girl and I fell in love She shines brighter than the stars above I bought her a pretty diamond ring Asked her if she would marry me She said, will you treat me like my daddy did Left me and momma, I was just a kid He took off runnin', I never saw his face again So, when it comes to love, I ain't the trustin' kind There's a whole lotta scars on this heart of mine I'm crazy about ya, I'm not sure I can I took that pretty girl by the hand I looked her in her eyes and said I understand There's nothing you could tell me that would change a thing I still want you to wear my ring I'll treat you just like my daddy did He took me fishin' when I was a kid When I played ball, he never missed a game When it comes to love, I'm the trusting kind There ain't no scars on this heart of mine I'm crazy about ya, I'm pretty sure I can Tomorrow morning is our wedding day And all your fears are gonna fade away Together we're gonna build a bridge No, I won't treat ya like your daddy did We'll have the kind of love that's the trusting kind I'll give you ever piece of this heart of mine We were meant to be, I'm pretty sure we can I found a little girl and I fell in love She shines brighter than the stars above --- Like My Daddy Did - Vince Gill
