You’re my love, you’re my angel
You’re the girl of my dreams
I’d like to thank you
For waiting patiently, yeah, yeah...

Daddy’s home
Your daddy’s home to stay, yeah, yeah

How I’ve waited for this moment (Rat-a-tat)
To be by your side (To be by your side)
Your best friends wrote and told me (Rat-a-tat)
You had tear drops in your eyes, yeah

Daddy’s home
Your daddy’s home to stay

It wasn’t on a Sunday
Monday and Tuesday went by
It wasn’t on a Tuesday afternoon
All I could do was cry

But I made a promise (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) that you’d treasure
I’ve made it back home to you (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

How I’ve waited for this moment
To be by your side (To be by your side)
Your best friends wrote and told me (Rat-a-tat)
You had tear drops in your eyes, yeah

Daddy’s home
Your daddy’s home to stay, yeah, yeah

(Daddy’s home)
I’m not a thousand miles away, yeah, yeah
(Daddy’s home to stay)
And I’m gonna be here, come with me, come with me

(Daddy’s home to stay)
I’m not a thousand miles away, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Daddy’s home to stay)
And I’m gonna be here, come with me
