(Verse 1)
Late nights, baby crying in my arms,
Got no one else, but I keep calm.
I’m the one who wipes her tears away,
Gotta be strong every single day.
Tryna call her daddy, but he don’t reply,
Only comes around when he feels obliged.
Love ain’t something you clock in for,
It’s what you give and still want more.
(Pre-Chorus)
Sometimes it hurts, yeah, I won’t lie,
But I see her smile and I know why—
(Chorus)
I’ll be the one who holds her tight,
Tuck her in and kiss goodnight.
Show her love that never fades,
Even when the world turns grey.
He might never see what he’s missing,
But I’ll give her all of me, no conditions.
That’s what it means, yeah,
To love my Amy.
(Verse 2)
She got my eyes, got my soul,
She’s the reason I feel whole.
When I’m tired, she’s my peace,
Her little laugh puts my heart at ease.
It breaks me down when I realize,
She won’t know a father’s lullaby.
I grew up with love so true,
And I wish she could feel that too.
(Pre-Chorus)
But I won’t beg for what ain’t real,
I’ll give her love that she can feel.
(Chorus)
I’ll be the one who holds her tight,
Tuck her in and kiss goodnight.
Show her strength through every storm,
Keep her safe, keep her warm.
He might never see what he’s missing,
But I’ll give her all of me, no conditions.
That’s what it means,
To love my Amy.
(Bridge)
One day she’ll ask where he’s been,
And I’ll tell her love don’t always win.
But baby girl, you were my light,
You made all my wrongs feel right.
(Breakdown – soft vocals, harmonies)
Mmm, I got you, baby…
No matter what he do, I’m here, baby…
Yeah, we gon’ make it through, Amy…
(Final Chorus)
I’ll be the one who holds you tight,
Keep you safe all through the night.
You’ll never question if you’re loved,
You’re my angel from above.
He might never see what he’s missing,
But I’ll give you all of me, no conditions.
That’s what it means…
To love my Amy.
(Outro – slow fade, soulful ad-libs)
Ohh, my Amy…
My heart, my soul, my baby…
That’s what it means…
To love my Amy…
