We lost our daughter Sophie, two years ago from cancer, aged 16 years old. This song has made me cry non stop since i saw it. If only I had the chance to see her walk down the aisle with the second best man in her life. These would be the exact words I would tell him. She still is the most precious person in my life. I can't wait to see her again when my time comes.
I lost my Dad a year ago and this is what I also tell myself and it somehow consoles me, that I'll be able to meet him again when my time ends. I hope your daughter will be happy watching over your family till she meets you again.
My dad died last year from Covid...in a hospital bed by himself in NY. He got sick this week a year ago and died two weeks later. I watched the video for the first time today. I can't stop watching it and listening and just crying, crying and crying. I haven't been able to grieve properly. He wasn't buried...He's in an urn and hopefully sometime this year, I plan to put his ashes in the ocean. You spoke to my heart. Thank you.
im so sorry for your loss. Reading your comment breaks my heart. I lost my father when I was 15...I'm in my 30's now and just cried like a baby through this whole song. I know how much pain you are in right now, how intense that pain is, and even though you are a stranger I wish I could take it from you because I remember. It's okay to not be okay right now, and I promise there is an 'other side' even though it's impossible to see right now. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss. Hang in there and hold on. ❤️
Typing through tears. My wife showed me this song. I'm a father to two girls--13 and 6. I was diagnosed 3 years ago at age 41 with stage IV cancer. This song wrecks me because it's pretty small odds I will see their weddings or meet the boys they marry. My 13 year old put together a play list I could listen to during chemo today. I made one and sent it back to her and included this song for her. Thank you. It's beautiful and it's how I feel about my little girls. My youngest daughter has jet black hair and blue eyes and marble skin and will probably look a lot like this bride in the video when she's grown.
I'm so sorry about your diagnosis. A few years ago, I saw where a mom who had a terminal condition made videos giving her daughter advice she thought she might need as she grew up. I don't know if that is something that would work for you but just wanted to share it. You may have already thought of this, but you might make at least one video telling them how much you love them. Just me thinking out loud.
@@pamb5186 Yes, thank you. I have made videos for my kids after the manner you describe. I have also written each of them their own letters. I have also created a private family Gmail account that I send regular emails to with advice as I think of it. I have little audio files that I've made for special occasions that I've pretimed to be sent via email. I believe it will be important to them some day to hear my voice say 'I love you' or 'Hapoy Birthday'
Moral of the song: love her like her dad did or never had the chance to, and she'll be the best thing you'll ever have! Good luck, guys! You can do this 😌
I'm trying for my gf of a year and a half. Her father isn't really a good person from within the household and the family circle but appears nice to outsiders or friends. She never got the affection or close love needed. Never had a man taking care of her. I'm really happy I can provide this for her. She loves all the little things so much like just being cuddled and held in my arms. Can't believe I've found such a perfect person. I just want to say love is out there for everyone just waiting. But you do need God's help to better yourself and be who you aspire to be. He will guide you. I'm just really grateful for everything I have.
My dad passed when I was 13. My mom and I loved this song and decided it was what I was going to walk down the isle to. My mother passed 2 months ago. I get married in 3 weeks. I listen to this daily and still cry. Thank you for making this song, you'll never know how much it means to me.
Sending prayers and love your way. I hope you've been doing okay. U deserve all the happiness bestie. Also, congratulations and may you have a long, happy marriage❤
Hi Forest, My name is Doireann Sheehan. I'm the little girl in your video!! I had an amazing time doing it!! It was my first job, thanks for the oppurtunity. Btw, I love your music! My family have started listening to it a lot. Really hope you come to Ireland and perform a concert, some time soon!!
The lines ' She's the best thing you ever have' really hit harder 😢😢.. I request everyone not to hurt those people who have loved you with all their hearts and not to leave them alone in difficult situations...
Been listenin to this on and off all day and bein a dad myself it hits hard but also on the other hand i see it from a person who truly loves a special lady as i do so for me its both great song
I just got married a month ago to the best man I’ve ever met. My brother, who is the best brother a girl could possibly have, walked me down the isle because my dad died when I was 2 years old. I wouldn’t change anything about my life because God has a way of making beauty from ashes. But I sure cried at the end of this video, because that sure hit home. What a beautiful song and video!!
My mom did the job for my father, she said those exact words to my ex (as you can tell, he broke his promise, but kept the rest to this day, but as I always say "it's never too late to repair a broken promise, put all the faith in god and in the right time everything will be alright and see what the future holds" and my mother is the one who used to always say that to me, so I keep that in mind)
From feeling all alone in childhood, longing for love and care, to now watching my daughter receive everything I ever wished for. Her father is the love and strength I once yearned for-truly one of the most wonderful father in the world❤
lyrics: Take it If she gives you her heart, don't you break it Let your arms be a place she feels safe in She’s the best thing that you'll ever have [Verse 1] She always has trouble falling asleep And she likes to cuddle while under the sheets She loves pop songs And dancing, and bad trash TV There’s still a few other things She loves love notes and babies And likes giving gifts Has a hard time accepting a good compliment She loves hеr whole family And all of her friends So if you'rе the one she lets in [Chorus] Take it If she gives you her heart, don't you break it Let your arms be a place she feels safe in She’s the best thing that you'll ever have She’ll love you, if you love her On days when It feels like the whole world might cave in Stand side by side and you’ll make it She’s the best thing that you'll ever have She’ll love you, if you love her like that [Verse 2] Kiss her with passion as much as you can Run your hands through her hair whenever she’s sad And when she doesn’t notice how pretty she is Tell her over and over So she never forgets [Chorus] Take it If she gives you her heart, don't you break it Let your arms be a place she feels safe in She’s the best thing that you'll ever have She’ll love you, if you love her On days when It feels like the whole world might cave in Stand side by side and you’ll make it She’s the best thing that you'll ever have She’ll love you, if you love her like that [Bridge] She’ll love you If you love her like that She’ll love you If you love her [Outro] On days when It feels like the whole world might cave in Stand side by side and you’ll make it She’s the best thing that you'll ever have She’ll love you, if you love her like that
To all the little girls and boys who didn't get loved like that, you deserve so much more. To all the fathers and mothers giving their little girl or little boy away who loved them like that, thank you. To all the men and women who will love those little girls and boys like that, never stop.
@Chill I love myself too I hope you like some of these songs that I could think of. Steven Curtis Chapman - Cinderella Dan + Shay - When I Pray For You Dan + Shay - From the Ground Up Kelsea Ballerini - Legends James TW - Incredible Rascall Flatt - Bless the Broken Road Brian McKnight - Marry Your Daughter Lifehouse - You and Me New Empire - A Little Braver
Hey chuck, I don’t have depression, and I know it may not mean much from some dude on the internet. But for better or for worse, everyone needs you for something. You have use, and you matter. I hope you beat this.
Thanks for that This song is so good, it helps me and gives me hope, even though the times are hard, even if my soul cries when I listen to it, it conveys a beautiful message and i do my best Thanks for the messages, may you all be blessed and happy !
My daddy was murdered when I was 1 year and two months old to the day. I'm almost 52 now. I cry when I see commercials or movies of a daddy dancing at the wedding or walking her down the isle. Letting her dance on his feet as he's dancing. It breaks my heart to this day that I didn't get to know that kind of love. It's a beautiful song!!
Im 13 and my dad passed away when i was only 2 so ik how you feel it hurts me but i now have a step dad whos helped my mom raise me sience i was little and im very grateful for him god bless you and i hope you get to see him again some day❤️❤️❤️
My wife and I separated earlier this year and I heard this tonight for the first time.. this is exactly how I feel every single day, picturing what I could tell the man she ends up with if she ever ended up with another. We've known eachother for 11 years, pretty much grew up together, and know everything about eachother. She ended up not being happy and you can't force love. Never thought I'd be starting my life over again at 33, but this song gives me hope that if she ever remarried, she'd find a man who will love her even a fraction of the amount that I did.
Yeah,when one person is falling out of love,we can never force it to remain,however though it is painful and heartbreaking but in order to profess how we care and love them we let them go
❤❤❤❤youre still the one i love and always have loved now snd always forevrr and ever robbie gerritsen walker God Bless.......dont give up me please im srry honedtly...
My dad just send me this and told me that he heard it on the radio yesterday. I didn't know what to expect but after 10 seconds I was just crying. Thank you for this Forest
This is exactly how I feel about my lady...I cry everytime I hear it because she is definitely the best thing I'll ever have and I know I'm blessed and will love her everyday.. amazing song... for an amazing woman...my girl...
Well after she saw the video...she cried and it wasn't long before she just told me she couldn't do it anymore...it broke my heart to no end...but I had to let her walk away...the best thing I ever had... don't even know what happened and why...I just had to walk away... been hard to forget her...best of luck to everyone here
I heard this and my 17 year older daughter just started dating a young man who treats her like an angel. I did the ugly cry when I heard this this song. Man it’s scary to watch your baby girl grow up into a woman who falls in love. Wow!! Beautiful song.
I know the feeling I'm going through that with 2 of my girls 18 & 16 and its so hard to let my babies grow up, I have 2 more to cry and worry through but she's 11 I still have time, but I have only one son I think that will send me over the ledge. Good luck Let's hope for no broken hearts,
@@lostinwonderland6873 Oh God bless you. I have two adult sons and one just got engaged. I was Leary of the girls with them but my baby girl is with me all the time and now it’s school, ball practice and him. She came home after practice on Thursday because she missed me. She’s usually home around 9 and straight to bed. I now understand the saying that they step on your toes when they’re little and they step on your heart when they grow up.
@@pamelam7026 they sure do. I would give anything to have a messy home with little kids things they made, now I have a clean house but miss my tiny babies. I tell my niece she has a 3 year old don't get mad treasure all this madness one day you'll miss it. We live in South Texas and it does not snow here and we had so much snow and at least for a moment I had my little ones back playing in the Snow together. My daughter is going into the Police Academy so I don't know how I'm going to handle her being away. My only son is girl crazy and I don't like that but I'm going to be force to just smile, I'm lucky he has 3 sisters to protect his heart.
I’m getting married this Sunday (December 20, 2020) and we will be using this song for our first dance. ❤️ Thank you Forest Blakk for your inspiration and amazing voice.
That was my birthday...and it was a day that I broke open to love again. At 42, lol. I hope you had an amazing wedding and have an even more beautiful life together.♥️
Yep. Not me at 3am listening to this, 6 days before my wedding, bawling my eyes out . Didn't realise that's what this song was about. I decided to find the music video and now I don't think I can walk down the isle to it
You know when other girls said, "my dad is my first love".. I only wish they realize how lucky they are to be able to said such thing. Hugs to everyone here. Let the past be the past. I pray that every wounds will all be fully healed, and we can live life to the fullest gracefully with gratitude & wisdom we harvest from our wounds.
I dont think it necessarily has to be a message from a father. Could be same thing said from a mother or a grandparent. Any other figure who loves you and wants the best for you.
Amazing song ❤ I never had a good relationship with my dad but it’s truly heartwarming to see amazing dads out there. Girl with amazing dads, love and appreciate him wholeheartedly. Some of us will never have that experience.
I completely agree with you I had a rocky relationship with my dad. He died of a drug overdose 6 months ago I miss him so much 😢 I know how you feel. 😢
Me too ❤ my dad isn't in my life, that's a choice I made and I will never regret, but it's lovely to see what a really special relationship some daughters have with their Dads and it's every bit as special as the relationship I have with my sons and as they have with their Dad ❤
What a beautiful song. I’m fortunate and so thankful that my Dad is still with me in this world. I’m praying that he’ll be there one day when it’s the right time for me to get married 🥺
I grew up thinking my Dad would walk me down aisle. I always imagined we would dance to Butterfly Kisses at my wedding, the way did every we did at every father daughter dance from the time I was 7 til my senior year of high school. And he would make a corny joke, just to keep us both from crying. But Covid interfered with wedding planning, and Cancer took Daddy from me in October. I have been so so so devastated about it. This song makes me feel like that dance won't be completely gone. He may not be with me, but I know this is how he felt. Thank you so so so much for this.
I'm so sorry for your loss. My dad was taken from cancer in 2014 we used to dance to that song aswell I always wanted to play it on my wedding with my dad and that won't happen now. I am getting married July 17th and this song is amazing.
I just recently heard this song and I have been playing it on repeat for the past few days... I had to have open heart surgery back in December for a quadruple bypass at the age of 36. I have a young daughter and this song has just made me realize that this life we have is so precious and it should not be taken for granted. This song makes me want to fight for her and be able to make it to her wedding one day. Thank you Forest!
A little over a month ago, I met the most amazing woman of my whole life. We connected so quickly and like we knew each other forever. We FaceTimed for hours and just got to know the real versions of each other and I felt comfortable telling her how I deal with mental health and getting through each day. We had the greatest date ever, I brought her roses in her favorite color, we hit the mall, got food, went on a hike, went to sit in massage chairs and she’s the best kisser I’ve ever met. On the car ride back home, I opened the sun roof on my Ford Focus at night and I played her this song. I listened to this song beforehand and it made me think of her so I played it and we held hands to it, kissed each others dorsal (back of the hand) and even thumb wrestled for the heck of it. When we separated, we gave each other a nice big hug and a huge kiss (a decent amount of time) and she said “well save the rest for tomorrow”. Few days later, the worst news of my life :( she passed away unexpectedly. Every time I’ve listened to this song since, it brings me back to a moment of happiness but not without a few tears (or a lot). I hope she knew how much I cared about her. I miss her so much.
Take it When she gives you her heart, don't you break it Let your arms be a place she feels safe in She's the best thing that you'll ever have She always has trouble falling asleep And she likes to cuddle, all under the sheets She loves pop songs and dancing and bad trash TV There's still a few other things She loves love notes and babies and likes giving gifts Has a hard time accepting a good compliment And she loves her whole family and all of her friends So if you're the one she lets in Take it When she gives you her heart, don't you break it Let your arms be a place she feels safe in She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you if you love her On days when It feels like the whole world might cave in Stand side by side and you'll make it She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you if you love her like that Kiss her with passion as much as you can Run your hands through her hair, whenever she's sad And when she doesn't notice how pretty she is Tell her over and over, so she never forgets Take it When she gives you her heart, don't you break it Let your arms be a place she feels safe in She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you if you love her On days when It feels like the whole world might cave in Stand side by side and you'll make it She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you if you love her like that She'll love you if you love her like that She'll love you, she'll love you She'll love you if you love her like that Oh, oh, yeah Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah She'll love you, she'll love you, she'll love you She'll love you if you love her On days when It feels like the whole world might cave in Stand side by side and you'll make it She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you if you love her like that
It's not a song, its an emotion, an ode to all the daughters around the world from their father. Perfectly depicting the feelings of a father. Extraordinary work with the lyrics, the music and of course the video.
I must say that as a dad of a 3-year old little girl ... this is the most perfect song I have ever heard in what I want for my daughter. I hope she will never settle for anything else and I will empower her to know how special and unique she is and to teach her what she deserves from a man. This song SURELY brings tears to any daddy's eyes that love their daughters, regardless of her age. Thank you Forest Blakk! Wow. I have saved this song to play for my daughter when she's old enough to understand what it means.
A guy in my neighborhood would sing this song every evening sitting by the window and I'd always listen to him in my room. I never got to know his name. Now that he had already moved out from that house, I'd listen to this song to remember him again💕
This is the first time a song has made me cry , ive heard this a few times before but had no idea it was a father’s words I lost my dad a few months ago and not a day goes by without missing him Thank you so much this song means a lot to me He was truly the best man in my life ❤
When you're young, life feels like everything will stay the same. But then you quickly grow up and realize nothing lasts forever. And just like that, the ones who raised you, held you and cared for you fade to dust. But the truth is they don't truly die; there's a part of them still alive. And it is YOU.
Thank you for your comment. I just lost my Dad in April if this year and I miss him so much it still hurts and bad but I do know I am a lot of him as well as my dear Mother. Thank you I needed to have that reintereated to me.
I'm crying right now... The best song I've ever heard about the bonding and love between a dad and daughter... I feel blessed to have a father who loves me exactly like this beautiful song. He never directly says everything but he loves and cares for me the most, even more than he loves my mom. This song reminded me again how important fathers are in our life. He always supports me in everything I do, he's always there when I need him, always guides me, protects me, never made me do something I don't want to, has given me freedom to live my life as I would want, he only wants to see me happy... I know one day he won't be there to hold me when I'll be scared, when I'll need his strength and just thinking about this is already breaking my heart. Dad I promise I'll work hard to make you feel a proud dad one day. Your girl won't disappoint you. Thank you for everything... Please be by my side for a long long time and I love and respect you so much!!!
I swear songs like these are where many people open up(please don’t keep it stuffed in your heart, it has to come out, even if it is to strangers) and there are these amazing strangers that come to your saving and helping them, assures that everything will be alright. Like thank you to everyone, for making me cry, and to those who tell everyone that everything will be alright
How come i just already know this song exists? for the sake of God, I immediately cried when I heard the first verse of this song. a father's sincere love for his daughter is real and its so beautiful. someday i'll definitely play this song on my wedding. Thank you for creating a song full of heartwarmth feels. God bless u 🤍
Why is this the first time I’ve heard of Forest Blakk? I love this song and after listening to some of his other music, I am definitely a fan. As for the poetry, it’s best listened to in a quiet place with your eyes closed. Yay, TH-cam, because this popped up on my feed and I’m so glad it did!
My hubby chose this as our bridal waltz a few months ago. Had never heard song before this and it brought me and a number of our guests close to joyful tears. Now I'm a huge fan of all of your songs. So much substance and depth in them
This song isn't just beautiful, it's a reminder that everyone deserves to be treated right. Thank you Forest! There could not be a better message then this one! ❤
Hi ! Just heard this song on the finale of "love island USA"...I fell in love with it and had to find it! Beautiful song, will definitely be a favorite for years to come!! Cheers from Canada 🤟🥰
OMG- I heard this song for the first time two weeks ago while laying by the pool at a resort in Orlando. I must have looked ridiculous as the only person crying their eyes out while everyone else was enjoying themselves. What a beautiful, heart grabbing, emotional song! I quickly googled the refrain to find out who sang this treasure of a song- Wow! Now, seeing the video and reading all these beautiful, emotional and heartbreaking comments I am again crying my eyes out. I always know how much I will love a song by whether it makes me cry- this one definitely is one of the best I have ever heard. May all of you find peace, and comfort, and the most perfect love you could ever imagine-🙏❤️
Lost my dad 3 months after the release of this video. It’s as if you had a peek inside mine and my fathers life. Down to the dress and boots, the bad trash tv. Never heard anyone else use that phrase. He was cremated. Just about every line was our life. I listen to this song every day. It has been my therapy through grieving. And now, I watch it and smile and laugh at how it has brought me full circle. You’re a very talented, wisdom with words, musician. I love to hear the stories you write and sing. Thank you.
I just heard this song on the radio and it stopped me in my tracks. It is a masterpiece. I’m working away from my girls at the moment but will see them in a few days and I can’t wait. This song really shows that bond between a father and his daughters and it is a bond like no other. The moment I land back at home and see their faces again my heart fills with joy and sings with the love I have for them. I love nothing more than to see them happy and would take away any pain or anything that upsets them in a moment and suffer it myself for an eternity rather than see them sad for a moment. Thank you for this song, it is beautiful.
So beautiful. Thank you. I have been blessed with my father. Words could never convey how lucky I am; for him. I rushed to the altar to have him walk me when we weren't certain how long we would have. This song reminds me to never take for granted, though I do, the time we have.
This is one of the most profound videos and touching song I have ever seen and heard regarding a father's love for his daughter and wanting to make it clear to her future husband what a wonderful woman he had in his life since her father certainly knew it while alive. My father passed away just only a little over two weeks ago and this song speaks to me and also breaks my heart since I know he would have wanted to tell my future husband this very same thing. Yes, I am a Daddy's Girl and always will be. Miss you Papa, and love you tons forever and ever. ❤️
I didn't find any lyrics soo here's the lyrics if y'all want. Take it If she gives you her heart Don't you break it Let your arms be a place She feels safe in She's the best thing that you'll ever have She always has trouble Falling asleep And she likes to cuddle While under the sheets She loves Pop songs And dancing, and bad trash TV There's still a few other things She loves love notes and babies And likes giving gifts Has a hard time accepting A good compliment She loves her whole family And all of her friends So if you're the one she lets in Take it If she gives you her heart Don't you break it Let your arms be a place She feels safe in She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you If you love her On days when It feels like the whole World might cave in Stand side by side And you'll make it She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you If you love her like that Kiss her with passion As much as you can Run your hands through her hair Whenever she's sad And when she doesn't notice How pretty she is Tell her over and over So she never forgets Take it If she gives you her heart Don't you break it Let your arms be a place She feels safe in She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you If you love her On days when It feels like the whole World might cave in Stand side by side And you'll make it She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you If you love her like that She'll love you If you love her like that She'll love you If you love her She'll love you If you love her like that She'll love you She'll love you She'll love you She'll love you If you love her On days when It feels like the whole World might cave in Stand side by side And you'll make it She's the best thing that you'll ever have She'll love you If you love her like that
I came across this song by accident. My dad passed away almost two years ago. I often think about how he won’t be able to see me graduate, come to my wedding, or meet my future children. This song really speaks to me. I know this is what he would have said to my future husband as well.
Being a 15 year old Indian daughter I know that these few thing that I see in the western countries I will never get to experience like my dad walking me down the aisle but I love my dad and I especially realised it after his 3 heart attack he is strong and survived . 1 like from this was bought tears to my eyes and tbh my dad hates the thought of marrying me off because he thinks no one is worthy!
I lost my Dad unexpectedly in 2016. During my last visit with him in the hospital a few days before I thought he was going to be released back home, we had a long conversation and it was the sweetest. I think HE knew he wasn't leaving that hospital. He described the man that he wanted for me and told me what I deserved. He pretty much described me like you did in this song. Told me all the qualities he loved about me and wanted someone that loved like me for me. This song and video make me ugly cry every single time I see it. You have won my heart and respect. Thank you for giving me that moment with my Dad over and over again every time I listen to this song. It was such a beautiful last conversation that I will always cherish. Makes me sad that he won't be physically walking me down that aisle if I ever remarry, but I KNOW he'll be there. ❤
My dad passed, he gave us his blessing just hours before, I’m now getting married and walking down the aisle to this, in memory of my dad, as words to my future husband.
My dads birthday is today, he has been gone 10 Years and today I didn’t want to make a big deal if it because I didn’t want to be sad. But then this song came on as a commercial and it caught my attention because i thought it was a beautiful love story.... and it was ....about father and daughter awwww I miss my dad thank you for this song.
I cried and cried when I heard this. Today is my daughter's 30th birthday. Her dad died 3 years ago and he loved her so much. She has his smile, she gives me courage and makes me so proud! Beautiful, song.
For every girl his father is the first most trusted and loved man in whole universe. Love her like her father to receive love like your mother from her💜
My son is going to walk me down the isle to this song. His daddy, my husband, tragically passed away and this song represents my late husband 'giving me away' to my new man through our son. Such a touching song to this type of situation
I keep coming back to it over and over again, find myself singing or humming it sometimes. One of the most beautiful, touching music videos I've ever seen (and I'm 56 hahaha have seen a few!) .. and the song on repeat in my head :) thank you!
I am literally crying my eyes out while listening to this. Video is amazing. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder a few weeks ago and had a rough time but my dad has always stayed by my side, and we often listen to this song together. Thanks for this, really.
THIS SONG IS SO BEAUTIFUL. I was in tears listening to this and it touched so deep. In my situation, just going through so many bad relationships and looking for someone who can “love me like that”.. loved it!🙏🏻💕
Thanks for the love everyone!!! Text me, I text back 310-496-3464!!
Thank you so much for your acknowledgement. It's really nice of you xx
You're amazing. Beautiful.
I love this song..
Thank you 💕😊 great songs
Hi
We lost our daughter Sophie, two years ago from cancer, aged 16 years old. This song has made me cry non stop since i saw it. If only I had the chance to see her walk down the aisle with the second best man in her life. These would be the exact words I would tell him. She still is the most precious person in my life. I can't wait to see her again when my time comes.
God. So sorry to hear that.
I’m so sorry for your loss 🎗🎗🎗
❤🙏
So very sorry for your loss bud
I lost my Dad a year ago and this is what I also tell myself and it somehow consoles me, that I'll be able to meet him again when my time ends. I hope your daughter will be happy watching over your family till she meets you again.

"DAD"

Brother too
How is it a song for a Best Friend.??
Isn't it for a future husband
Am sending it to my guy friend
My dad died last year from Covid...in a hospital bed by himself in NY. He got sick this week a year ago and died two weeks later. I watched the video for the first time today. I can't stop watching it and listening and just crying, crying and crying. I haven't been able to grieve properly. He wasn't buried...He's in an urn and hopefully sometime this year, I plan to put his ashes in the ocean. You spoke to my heart. Thank you.
MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE
We will see them again!
im so sorry for your loss. Reading your comment breaks my heart. I lost my father when I was 15...I'm in my 30's now and just cried like a baby through this whole song.
I know how much pain you are in right now, how intense that pain is, and even though you are a stranger I wish I could take it from you because I remember. It's okay to not be okay right now, and I promise there is an 'other side' even though it's impossible to see right now.
Again, I'm so sorry for your loss. Hang in there and hold on. ❤️
Much love❤️ I’m so sorry for your loss
I am so sorry for your loss. Dont give up.💕
"she's the best thing you'll ever have.."
so grateful to hear this song
Typing through tears. My wife showed me this song. I'm a father to two girls--13 and 6. I was diagnosed 3 years ago at age 41 with stage IV cancer. This song wrecks me because it's pretty small odds I will see their weddings or meet the boys they marry. My 13 year old put together a play list I could listen to during chemo today. I made one and sent it back to her and included this song for her. Thank you. It's beautiful and it's how I feel about my little girls. My youngest daughter has jet black hair and blue eyes and marble skin and will probably look a lot like this bride in the video when she's grown.
I'm so sorry about your diagnosis. A few years ago, I saw where a mom who had a terminal condition made videos giving her daughter advice she thought she might need as she grew up. I don't know if that is something that would work for you but just wanted to share it. You may have already thought of this, but you might make at least one video telling them how much you love them. Just me thinking out loud.
@@pamb5186 Yes, thank you. I have made videos for my kids after the manner you describe. I have also written each of them their own letters. I have also created a private family Gmail account that I send regular emails to with advice as I think of it. I have little audio files that I've made for special occasions that I've pretimed to be sent via email. I believe it will be important to them some day to hear my voice say 'I love you' or 'Hapoy Birthday'
Beautiful
I wish you the best on your journey.
Truly best wishes for your journey.
And for your daughters ❤
Hope them can find their future partners who love them like you ❤
They really dont make songs like this anymore. This is a gem in this day and age.
Its sad
Thank you!!
I agree with you.
This is so true.
Totally......everything just has a peppy tune🤕
Bro ...songs like these deserve a Grammy 😭
I see no lies
Fr
So true!
The Grammys are rigged for certain types of songs
Yes i agree
A message for future generations don't let this song die 😞
Yes
Very well said 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
So true
Moral of the song: love her like her dad did or never had the chance to, and she'll be the best thing you'll ever have! Good luck, guys! You can do this 😌
I'm trying for my gf of a year and a half. Her father isn't really a good person from within the household and the family circle but appears nice to outsiders or friends. She never got the affection or close love needed. Never had a man taking care of her. I'm really happy I can provide this for her. She loves all the little things so much like just being cuddled and held in my arms. Can't believe I've found such a perfect person. I just want to say love is out there for everyone just waiting. But you do need God's help to better yourself and be who you aspire to be. He will guide you. I'm just really grateful for everything I have.
Beautiful! I am so happy for you 😊 may God continue to bless you and your relationship 🙏
@@s.h.3622 Thank you
@@ek7407 beautifully said. Hope to find someone that's loves me like you love her. She is blessed to have you.

My dad passed when I was 13. My mom and I loved this song and decided it was what I was going to walk down the isle to. My mother passed 2 months ago. I get married in 3 weeks. I listen to this daily and still cry. Thank you for making this song, you'll never know how much it means to me.
Sending prayers and love your way. I hope you've been doing okay. U deserve all the happiness bestie. Also, congratulations and may you have a long, happy marriage❤
TODAY IS THE DAY GUYS!

Hi Forest, My name is Doireann Sheehan. I'm the little girl in your video!! I had an amazing time doing it!! It was my first job, thanks for the oppurtunity.
Btw, I love your music! My family have started listening to it a lot. Really hope you come to Ireland and perform a concert, some time soon!!
You did such an amazing job!!!! Thank you for being a part of my music video. How exciting to know it was your first job.
@@ForestBlakk Thank you so much for replying.
Wish you the best.
You're stunning. Just beautiful..
You’re absolutely adorable ☺️
oh my God girl you’re stunning!! amazing job❤️
The lines ' She's the best thing you ever have' really hit harder 😢😢.. I request everyone not to hurt those people who have loved you with all their hearts and not to leave them alone in difficult situations...
😘thnx for your support. 💖
I appreciate your words, and I wish my husband could hear what you say, he's hurt me so badly...
Let's be honest, I know I'm not the only grown man who cried hearing this!
Nope, you’re definitely not alone on that one
This shows as a dad to daughter song. I take it as a man to wife song.
Been listenin to this on and off all day and bein a dad myself it hits hard but also on the other hand i see it from a person who truly loves a special lady as i do so for me its both great song
God no I’m at work trying to stare at a screen with watery eyes lol
No you are not alone here:)
I just got married a month ago to the best man I’ve ever met. My brother, who is the best brother a girl could possibly have, walked me down the isle because my dad died when I was 2 years old. I wouldn’t change anything about my life because God has a way of making beauty from ashes. But I sure cried at the end of this video, because that sure hit home. What a beautiful song and video!!
All the best for you and your family... Specially for your brother. ❤️
I have type 2 depression
Laugh with my videos
Well I wasn't expecting to cry like that.
Neither was I 😭👌🏻
It hit me too because I'm a big softy 😊☺😊☺
I know right
Me neither
Same
How blessed to those daughters who have great dads out there. I wish my daughter someday will have a great dad, too.
I wish you luck ❤
these kind of songs are so rare these days, i rlly want more songs like this. its so beautiful and meaningful
Thank you
Agreed!
Let me know if you find any others that are like this ☺️

To us who grew up without fathers, thank you, they may never say it but you did it on their behalf 🌻💜
❤
11/22/23 AMEN!!
🥰
My mom did the job for my father, she said those exact words to my ex (as you can tell, he broke his promise, but kept the rest to this day, but as I always say "it's never too late to repair a broken promise, put all the faith in god and in the right time everything will be alright and see what the future holds" and my mother is the one who used to always say that to me, so I keep that in mind)
🫶🫂
It hits different when you wish you had a father who would say this to your future husband.
And that just hurts.
I was just thinking that p__q
Same here...
ouch haha
Agreed 💔
Im with you.. 24 with no papa.. Lost him may 19 2019
From feeling all alone in childhood, longing for love and care, to now watching my daughter receive everything I ever wished for. Her father is the love and strength I once yearned for-truly one of the most wonderful father in the world❤
lyrics:
Take it
If she gives you her heart, don't you break it
Let your arms be a place she feels safe in
She’s the best thing that you'll ever have
[Verse 1]
She always has trouble falling asleep
And she likes to cuddle while under the sheets
She loves pop songs
And dancing, and bad trash TV
There’s still a few other things
She loves love notes and babies
And likes giving gifts
Has a hard time accepting a good compliment
She loves hеr whole family
And all of her friends
So if you'rе the one she lets in
[Chorus]
Take it
If she gives you her heart, don't you break it
Let your arms be a place she feels safe in
She’s the best thing that you'll ever have
She’ll love you, if you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole world might cave in
Stand side by side and you’ll make it
She’s the best thing that you'll ever have
She’ll love you, if you love her like that
[Verse 2]
Kiss her with passion as much as you can
Run your hands through her hair whenever she’s sad
And when she doesn’t notice how pretty she is
Tell her over and over
So she never forgets
[Chorus]
Take it
If she gives you her heart, don't you break it
Let your arms be a place she feels safe in
She’s the best thing that you'll ever have
She’ll love you, if you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole world might cave in
Stand side by side and you’ll make it
She’s the best thing that you'll ever have
She’ll love you, if you love her like that
[Bridge]
She’ll love you
If you love her like that
She’ll love you
If you love her
[Outro]
On days when
It feels like the whole world might cave in
Stand side by side and you’ll make it
She’s the best thing that you'll ever have
She’ll love you, if you love her like that
🥺💗
❤
To all the little girls and boys who didn't get loved like that, you deserve so much more.
To all the fathers and mothers giving their little girl or little boy away who loved them like that, thank you.
To all the men and women who will love those little girls and boys like that, never stop.
Thanks. Lost my dad at 12. This means a lot
This is such a sweet and also very profound message 🩵🤍🩵
Does anyone just like to listen to these type of songs just because they have a beautiful meaning or just me?
just me

This song is magical
Love it so much
Thank for doing it
We stay strong✊
Hey chuck, I don’t have depression, and I know it may not mean much from some dude on the internet. But for better or for worse, everyone needs you for something. You have use, and you matter. I hope you beat this.
You can beat it . We are all there for you ❤️ from India.
Thanks for that
This song is so good, it helps me and gives me hope, even though the times are hard, even if my soul cries when I listen to it, it conveys a beautiful message and i do my best
Thanks for the messages, may you all be blessed and happy !
Keep strong! You ll win . Have a great year
My daddy was murdered when I was 1 year and two months old to the day. I'm almost 52 now. I cry when I see commercials or movies of a daddy dancing at the wedding or walking her down the isle. Letting her dance on his feet as he's dancing. It breaks my heart to this day that I didn't get to know that kind of love. It's a beautiful song!!
Sorry
We are here for you
Im 13 and my dad passed away when i was only 2 so ik how you feel it hurts me but i now have a step dad whos helped my mom raise me sience i was little and im very grateful for him god bless you and i hope you get to see him again some day❤️❤️❤️
@@mazela1704 I'm glad you have a daddy now. Cherish him for as long as God will allow. Thank you for your comment. It means alot.💜💜
@@calebmuturi536 Thank you so much Caleb 💜💜
💔
My wife and I separated earlier this year and I heard this tonight for the first time.. this is exactly how I feel every single day, picturing what I could tell the man she ends up with if she ever ended up with another. We've known eachother for 11 years, pretty much grew up together, and know everything about eachother. She ended up not being happy and you can't force love. Never thought I'd be starting my life over again at 33, but this song gives me hope that if she ever remarried, she'd find a man who will love her even a fraction of the amount that I did.
😭😭😭
What happened meanwhile? Any news?
Yeah,when one person is falling out of love,we can never force it to remain,however though it is painful and heartbreaking but in order to profess how we care and love them we let them go
bruh T-T
What you felt for her... Its true love.
I hope he takes care of her and makes her happy everyday🌻🌻🌻
❤❤❤❤youre still the one i love and always have loved now snd always forevrr and ever robbie gerritsen walker
God Bless.......dont give up me please im srry honedtly...
My dad just send me this and told me that he heard it on the radio yesterday. I didn't know what to expect but after 10 seconds I was just crying. Thank you for this Forest
Ok it was maximum 5 seconds 😅
You're blessed to have a father who loves you like that.
Same, 30 secs in and I'm crying my eyes out 😂😢
I found this by accident and I can't stop listening
Same
Same
Me too🥺🥺🥺🥺
Oh me too...
Agreed
Songs like this will make you realize how short our lives are to waste on nonsense things instead of spending them with our loved ones.
My fiance passed away a few years ago and he taught me to live everyday like my last. Soooo soo many people just don't understand.
~*🦋~*
Every boy/guy/man needs to hear this❤
100% AGREE
This is exactly how I feel about my lady...I cry everytime I hear it because she is definitely the best thing I'll ever have and I know I'm blessed and will love her everyday.. amazing song... for an amazing woman...my girl...
Bless you..
She's lucky to have you :)
Oh yes
Well after she saw the video...she cried and it wasn't long before she just told me she couldn't do it anymore...it broke my heart to no end...but I had to let her walk away...the best thing I ever had... don't even know what happened and why...I just had to walk away... been hard to forget her...best of luck to everyone here
@@gregoryscearce4110 😢😢😢😢😢😢 dw dear stranger Time will heal everything stay strong
I heard this and my 17 year older daughter just started dating a young man who treats her like an angel. I did the ugly cry when I heard this this song. Man it’s scary to watch your baby girl grow up into a woman who falls in love. Wow!! Beautiful song.
I know the feeling I'm going through that with 2 of my girls 18 & 16 and its so hard to let my babies grow up, I have 2 more to cry and worry through but she's 11 I still have time, but I have only one son I think that will send me over the ledge. Good luck
Let's hope for no broken hearts,
@@lostinwonderland6873 Oh God bless you. I have two adult sons and one just got engaged. I was Leary of the girls with them but my baby girl is with me all the time and now it’s school, ball practice and him. She came home after practice on Thursday because she missed me. She’s usually home around 9 and straight to bed. I now understand the saying that they step on your toes when they’re little and they step on your heart when they grow up.
@@pamelam7026 they sure do. I would give anything to have a messy home with little kids things they made, now I have a clean house but miss my tiny babies. I tell my niece she has a 3 year old don't get mad treasure all this madness one day you'll miss it. We live in South Texas and it does not snow here and we had so much snow and at least for a moment I had my little ones back playing in the Snow together. My daughter is going into the Police Academy so I don't know how I'm going to handle her being away. My only son is girl crazy and I don't like that but I'm going to be force to just smile, I'm lucky he has 3 sisters to protect his heart.
I’m getting married this Sunday (December 20, 2020) and we will be using this song for our first dance. ❤️ Thank you Forest Blakk for your inspiration and amazing voice.
Best wishes to you and your future person ❤❤.
That was my birthday...and it was a day that I broke open to love again. At 42, lol. I hope you had an amazing wedding and have an even more beautiful life together.♥️
Best wishes to u❤
impossible not to cry from 3:00. a true masterpiece Forest Blakk, thanks for that!!!
I never had a good relationship with my father. So hearing this song makes me cry puddles, because it’s the only thing I ever wanted.
Yep. Not me at 3am listening to this, 6 days before my wedding, bawling my eyes out . Didn't realise that's what this song was about. I decided to find the music video and now I don't think I can walk down the isle to it
You know when other girls said, "my dad is my first love".. I only wish they realize how lucky they are to be able to said such thing.
Hugs to everyone here. Let the past be the past. I pray that every wounds will all be fully healed, and we can live life to the fullest gracefully with gratitude & wisdom we harvest from our wounds.
I dont think it necessarily has to be a message from a father. Could be same thing said from a mother or a grandparent. Any other figure who loves you and wants the best for you.
Forgive and forgot
Because we don’t know about tomorrow
With lots of love Arun
@@arunog2073 Thanks 🌹
Sir I dont appreciate you making me cry that was a beautiful song
@Zizi Hranglim Lol right?
Amazing song ❤
I never had a good relationship with my dad but it’s truly heartwarming to see amazing dads out there.
Girl with amazing dads, love and appreciate him wholeheartedly.
Some of us will never have that experience.
I completely agree with you I had a rocky relationship with my dad. He died of a drug overdose 6 months ago I miss him so much 😢 I know how you feel. 😢
Me too ❤ my dad isn't in my life, that's a choice I made and I will never regret, but it's lovely to see what a really special relationship some daughters have with their Dads and it's every bit as special as the relationship I have with my sons and as they have with their Dad ❤
You made my cry. I felt a very powerful force in your words that makes me believe you’re going to pull through.
What a beautiful song. I’m fortunate and so thankful that my Dad is still with me in this world. I’m praying that he’ll be there one day when it’s the right time for me to get married 🥺
I grew up thinking my Dad would walk me down aisle. I always imagined we would dance to Butterfly Kisses at my wedding, the way did every we did at every father daughter dance from the time I was 7 til my senior year of high school. And he would make a corny joke, just to keep us both from crying. But Covid interfered with wedding planning, and Cancer took Daddy from me in October. I have been so so so devastated about it. This song makes me feel like that dance won't be completely gone. He may not be with me, but I know this is how he felt. Thank you so so so much for this.
I'm so sorry for your loss. My dad was taken from cancer in 2014 we used to dance to that song aswell I always wanted to play it on my wedding with my dad and that won't happen now. I am getting married July 17th and this song is amazing.
I am so sorry for your loss (main comment and reply). I am glad you find comfort in this song. Sending you much love.
I just recently heard this song and I have been playing it on repeat for the past few days... I had to have open heart surgery back in December for a quadruple bypass at the age of 36. I have a young daughter and this song has just made me realize that this life we have is so precious and it should not be taken for granted. This song makes me want to fight for her and be able to make it to her wedding one day. Thank you Forest!
You will make it!
Perfect! This is the almost best Song i have ever listen to in my 52 Years! Thank you Forest........God bless you :)
A little over a month ago, I met the most amazing woman of my whole life. We connected so quickly and like we knew each other forever. We FaceTimed for hours and just got to know the real versions of each other and I felt comfortable telling her how I deal with mental health and getting through each day. We had the greatest date ever, I brought her roses in her favorite color, we hit the mall, got food, went on a hike, went to sit in massage chairs and she’s the best kisser I’ve ever met. On the car ride back home, I opened the sun roof on my Ford Focus at night and I played her this song. I listened to this song beforehand and it made me think of her so I played it and we held hands to it, kissed each others dorsal (back of the hand) and even thumb wrestled for the heck of it. When we separated, we gave each other a nice big hug and a huge kiss (a decent amount of time) and she said “well save the rest for tomorrow”. Few days later, the worst news of my life :( she passed away unexpectedly. Every time I’ve listened to this song since, it brings me back to a moment of happiness but not without a few tears (or a lot). I hope she knew how much I cared about her. I miss her so much.
Oh , I’m so sorry 😢 my friend , you lose someone that you really connected with. You are in my prayers.
Omg thats terrible :( Just know that shes always gonna look down at you and wait till the moment she can see you again and wrap her arms around you :)
Wish you all good blessings for you... She knew it, I'm sure of that
She lives inside you , with your soul❤️❤️
Live for her ......
prayers up for you big man
Take it
When she gives you her heart, don't you break it
Let your arms be a place she feels safe in
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She always has trouble falling asleep
And she likes to cuddle, all under the sheets
She loves pop songs and dancing and bad trash TV
There's still a few other things
She loves love notes and babies and likes giving gifts
Has a hard time accepting a good compliment
And she loves her whole family and all of her friends
So if you're the one she lets in
Take it
When she gives you her heart, don't you break it
Let your arms be a place she feels safe in
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you if you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole world might cave in
Stand side by side and you'll make it
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you if you love her like that
Kiss her with passion as much as you can
Run your hands through her hair, whenever she's sad
And when she doesn't notice how pretty she is
Tell her over and over, so she never forgets
Take it
When she gives you her heart, don't you break it
Let your arms be a place she feels safe in
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you if you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole world might cave in
Stand side by side and you'll make it
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you if you love her like that
She'll love you if you love her like that
She'll love you, she'll love you
She'll love you if you love her like that
Oh, oh, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She'll love you, she'll love you, she'll love you
She'll love you if you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole world might cave in
Stand side by side and you'll make it
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you if you love her like that
Almost
You got some words wrong
BUT ALMOST
Absolutely beautiful ❤️
Thank you so much.
@@oblivixus7473 you have to tell Google - it’s copied from there🙄
It's not a song, its an emotion, an ode to all the daughters around the world from their father. Perfectly depicting the feelings of a father. Extraordinary work with the lyrics, the music and of course the video.
Through tears I say what a beautiful song!! I miss my dad every day
As a single father, i thank you for this :')
I must say that as a dad of a 3-year old little girl ... this is the most perfect song I have ever heard in what I want for my daughter. I hope she will never settle for anything else and I will empower her to know how special and unique she is and to teach her what she deserves from a man. This song SURELY brings tears to any daddy's eyes that love their daughters, regardless of her age. Thank you Forest Blakk! Wow. I have saved this song to play for my daughter when she's old enough to understand what it means.
This song is like a self note for me, it keeps reminding me of what really love is.
I wish I was lucky enough to have a loving father like this.
If someone notices this, I’m still alive and fighting depression
Fight a little harder. The light is near.
you do it great keep going
you're nice
rooting for ya !
❤️❤️❤️
Keep going,
you can do this. Everything gonna be alright soon. ❤️
A guy in my neighborhood would sing this song every evening sitting by the window and I'd always listen to him in my room. I never got to know his name.
Now that he had already moved out from that house, I'd listen to this song to remember him again💕
an incomplete love story
Man, this song is the most touching song I've ever heard
This is the first time a song has made me cry , ive heard this a few times before but had no idea it was a father’s words
I lost my dad a few months ago and not a day goes by without missing him
Thank you so much
this song means a lot to me
He was truly the best man in my life ❤
When you're young, life feels like everything will stay the same. But then you quickly grow up and realize nothing lasts forever. And just like that, the ones who raised you, held you and cared for you fade to dust. But the truth is they don't truly die; there's a part of them still alive. And it is YOU.
God that hit me right in the heart. Thank you.
Thank you for your comment. I just lost my Dad in April if this year and I miss him so much it still hurts and bad but I do know I am a lot of him as well as my dear Mother. Thank you I needed to have that reintereated to me.
@@sandyyoung-boling9336 wisdom!!!
Thank you for reminding.
This song speaks right to my heart and I love it so much. I love a good song that reminds me how blessed and lucky I am to be in love.
I love and appreciate they chose an “older” woman as opposed to a younger woman to play the bride. Thank you for such a beautiful song and video.

Please be with me
I'm crying right now... The best song I've ever heard about the bonding and love between a dad and daughter... I feel blessed to have a father who loves me exactly like this beautiful song. He never directly says everything but he loves and cares for me the most, even more than he loves my mom. This song reminded me again how important fathers are in our life. He always supports me in everything I do, he's always there when I need him, always guides me, protects me, never made me do something I don't want to, has given me freedom to live my life as I would want, he only wants to see me happy... I know one day he won't be there to hold me when I'll be scared, when I'll need his strength and just thinking about this is already breaking my heart. Dad I promise I'll work hard to make you feel a proud dad one day. Your girl won't disappoint you. Thank you for everything... Please be by my side for a long long time and I love and respect you so much!!!
I swear songs like these are where many people open up(please don’t keep it stuffed in your heart, it has to come out, even if it is to strangers) and there are these amazing strangers that come to your saving and helping them, assures that everything will be alright. Like thank you to everyone, for making me cry, and to those who tell everyone that everything will be alright
Made me 😭
Father is always the first love of a daughter before any other man comes into her life.
This just made me miss dad so much.
no xd
but i am sorry for you :/
How come i just already know this song exists? for the sake of God, I immediately cried when I heard the first verse of this song. a father's sincere love for his daughter is real and its so beautiful. someday i'll definitely play this song on my wedding. Thank you for creating a song full of heartwarmth feels. God bless u 🤍
This is a song from a father to his son-in-law. Very emotional and meaningful song.
Why is this the first time I’ve heard of Forest Blakk? I love this song and after listening to some of his other music, I am definitely a fan. As for the poetry, it’s best listened to in a quiet place with your eyes closed. Yay, TH-cam, because this popped up on my feed and I’m so glad it did!
This will always be one of my favorite songs ❤️
This will always be one of my favorite comments

May God will Bless you abundantly Dear Forest Blakk for such a magical song
My hubby chose this as our bridal waltz a few months ago. Had never heard song before this and it brought me and a number of our guests close to joyful tears. Now I'm a huge fan of all of your songs. So much substance and depth in them
This song isn't just beautiful, it's a reminder that everyone deserves to be treated right. Thank you Forest! There could not be a better message then this one! ❤
Hi ! Just heard this song on the finale of "love island USA"...I fell in love with it and had to find it! Beautiful song, will definitely be a favorite for years to come!! Cheers from Canada 🤟🥰
Nikola Foster-King love it!!!! Go Canada!!
Same here
OMG- I heard this song for the first time two weeks ago while laying by the pool at a resort in Orlando. I must have looked ridiculous as the only person crying their eyes out while everyone else was enjoying themselves. What a beautiful, heart grabbing, emotional song! I quickly googled the refrain to find out who sang this treasure of a song- Wow! Now, seeing the video and reading all these beautiful, emotional and heartbreaking comments I am again crying my eyes out. I always know how much I will love a song by whether it makes me cry- this one definitely is one of the best I have ever heard. May all of you find peace, and comfort, and the most perfect love you could ever imagine-🙏❤️
🙏🏻👍🏻
Literally me tonight lol I miss my Daddy I miss him so much he was such a good Dad
💖✨
Why were you crying ?
This song warms my heart so much...I can't even put it into words. One of the best, purest love songs out there
Lost my dad 3 months after the release of this video. It’s as if you had a peek inside mine and my fathers life. Down to the dress and boots, the bad trash tv. Never heard anyone else use that phrase. He was cremated. Just about every line was our life. I listen to this song every day. It has been my therapy through grieving. And now, I watch it and smile and laugh at how it has brought me full circle. You’re a very talented, wisdom with words, musician. I love to hear the stories you write and sing. Thank you.
I just heard this song on the radio and it stopped me in my tracks. It is a masterpiece. I’m working away from my girls at the moment but will see them in a few days and I can’t wait. This song really shows that bond between a father and his daughters and it is a bond like no other. The moment I land back at home and see their faces again my heart fills with joy and sings with the love I have for them. I love nothing more than to see them happy and would take away any pain or anything that upsets them in a moment and suffer it myself for an eternity rather than see them sad for a moment.
Thank you for this song, it is beautiful.
So beautiful. Thank you. I have been blessed with my father. Words could never convey how lucky I am; for him. I rushed to the altar to have him walk me when we weren't certain how long we would have. This song reminds me to never take for granted, though I do, the time we have.
watched this over and over again....truly a masterpiece
This is one of the most profound videos and touching song I have ever seen and heard regarding a father's love for his daughter and wanting to make it clear to her future husband what a wonderful woman he had in his life since her father certainly knew it while alive. My father passed away just only a little over two weeks ago and this song speaks to me and also breaks my heart since I know he would have wanted to tell my future husband this very same thing. Yes, I am a Daddy's Girl and always will be. Miss you Papa, and love you tons forever and ever. ❤️
Hello Linda hope you’re okay??
You are so beautiful Linda 💖
@@davidtaylor4957 Thank you, doing better each day, but I will always miss my Dad.
@@andyanthony6796 Thank you, Anthony. That's sweet of you to say! 😊
I didn't find any lyrics soo here's the lyrics if y'all want.
Take it
If she gives you her heart
Don't you break it
Let your arms be a place
She feels safe in
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She always has trouble
Falling asleep
And she likes to cuddle
While under the sheets
She loves Pop songs
And dancing, and bad trash TV
There's still a few other things
She loves love notes and babies
And likes giving gifts
Has a hard time accepting
A good compliment
She loves her whole family
And all of her friends
So if you're the one she lets in
Take it
If she gives you her heart
Don't you break it
Let your arms be a place
She feels safe in
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you
If you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole
World might cave in
Stand side by side
And you'll make it
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you
If you love her like that
Kiss her with passion
As much as you can
Run your hands through her hair
Whenever she's sad
And when she doesn't notice
How pretty she is
Tell her over and over
So she never forgets
Take it
If she gives you her heart
Don't you break it
Let your arms be a place
She feels safe in
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you
If you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole
World might cave in
Stand side by side
And you'll make it
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you
If you love her like that
She'll love you
If you love her like that
She'll love you
If you love her
She'll love you
If you love her like that
She'll love you
She'll love you
She'll love you
She'll love you
If you love her
On days when
It feels like the whole
World might cave in
Stand side by side
And you'll make it
She's the best thing that you'll ever have
She'll love you
If you love her like that
You are the best
I started out for one.. thankyou😻
Thanks mate 🤙
tysmm :)
Thanks :)
You are one of the Best Composers and artist ever. You write, play and sing from your heart. Thank You
OMG why am I crying like this!! This song moved me in every way possible! Those words are beautiful ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
I came across this song by accident. My dad passed away almost two years ago. I often think about how he won’t be able to see me graduate, come to my wedding, or meet my future children. This song really speaks to me. I know this is what he would have said to my future husband as well.
well I’m so sorry for your loss. I bet he is so proud of you.
Hi
why is this song underrated?!? this is such a beautiful song
Being a 15 year old Indian daughter I know that these few thing that I see in the western countries I will never get to experience like my dad walking me down the aisle but I love my dad and I especially realised it after his 3 heart attack he is strong and survived . 1 like from this was bought tears to my eyes and tbh my dad hates the thought of marrying me off because he thinks no one is worthy!
aww that's cute
Couldn't relate better to anyone else❤️
I hope you and your family stays safe
That's so deep ❤️
Wow❤️
Wishing best for his health❤❤🤞🏻
This song saved my life, when times where dark it gave me a motivation and curage to carry on. Every line in this song is relatable.
My Dad passed away 5days ago and this song got me in tears Dad i miss you😢
Stay safe 🙏
Your dad will be happy if he can see these words
Vladimira Petrušovà stay safe you too🙏
@Firaol Kenassa Thank You❤
Sorry for ur loss
I lost my Dad unexpectedly in 2016. During my last visit with him in the hospital a few days before I thought he was going to be released back home, we had a long conversation and it was the sweetest. I think HE knew he wasn't leaving that hospital. He described the man that he wanted for me and told me what I deserved. He pretty much described me like you did in this song. Told me all the qualities he loved about me and wanted someone that loved like me for me. This song and video make me ugly cry every single time I see it. You have won my heart and respect. Thank you for giving me that moment with my Dad over and over again every time I listen to this song. It was such a beautiful last conversation that I will always cherish. Makes me sad that he won't be physically walking me down that aisle if I ever remarry, but I KNOW he'll be there. ❤
100% he will,
I never thought I would be taking dating advice from a song, but here I am in a healthy 8 month long relationship and still going strong
Love to hear that!
Congratulations
the best wedding song ever, such a beautiful story too
It's like my dads words being sung so my future husband can hear them from heaven. A true masterpiece.
Hey
@@st0rm244 yo
My dad passed, he gave us his blessing just hours before, I’m now getting married and walking down the aisle to this, in memory of my dad, as words to my future husband.
Oh wow I love this so much!! 🌹
My dads birthday is today, he has been gone 10
Years and today I didn’t want to make a big deal if it because I didn’t want to be sad. But then this song came on as a commercial and it caught my attention because i thought it was a beautiful love story.... and it was ....about father and daughter awwww I miss my dad thank you for this song.
I cried and cried when I heard this. Today is my daughter's 30th birthday. Her dad died 3 years ago and he loved her so much. She has his smile, she gives me courage and makes me so proud! Beautiful, song.
The most forbidden documentary in history....
“Europa The Last Battle” at archive dot org
I know right
Laugh with my videos
This girl suggested this song to me and she’s an angel and i will do anything to make her happy
For every girl his father is the first most trusted and loved man in whole universe. Love her like her father to receive love like your mother from her💜
My son is going to walk me down the isle to this song. His daddy, my husband, tragically passed away and this song represents my late husband 'giving me away' to my new man through our son. Such a touching song to this type of situation
I keep coming back to it over and over again, find myself singing or humming it sometimes. One of the most beautiful, touching music videos I've ever seen (and I'm 56 hahaha have seen a few!) .. and the song on repeat in my head :) thank you!
I am literally crying my eyes out while listening to this. Video is amazing. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder a few weeks ago and had a rough time but my dad has always stayed by my side, and we often listen to this song together. Thanks for this, really.
i’m not crying. you’re crying
We’re all crying
Yes I am and so are you. Admit it
THIS SONG IS SO BEAUTIFUL. I was in tears listening to this and it touched so deep. In my situation, just going through so many bad relationships and looking for someone who can “love me like that”.. loved it!🙏🏻💕
My Dad passed away 5yrs ago and this song brings memories of me and my Dad. I love you Dad. 😭😭😭💔🙏🏻🕊️
He is resting in peace an watching over you ❤️
Day after tomorrow will be 3 years since my dads death. I feel you 💙
This is for you and for your dad ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I understand depression all to well myself. Personally I’m glad you’re still fighting. Keep fighting, you deserve to be here
