Oh 
Oh 
Oh oh 
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 

Oh 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 gonna 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) 
Whoa 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 
Cause it's so obvious no body taught him how to be a father either 
I'm not saying this to reminisce on the past 
I'm just saying this to make you understand that I need a father. 
And this is my problem this is why I couldn't keep no one this is why I couldn't stay alone I was so scared alone everyone needs daddy and 
I don't think she understands cause 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 
Oh I really need the father in you
