Heidi Wolfson is a Philadelphia singer-songwriter. In her fourth decade of making music, Heidi is taking a slightly softer approach... but her music remains vocally interesting and the lyrics are definitely worth checking out. If you like Patti Smith, you will probably like Heidi. Have fun and thanks for listening.

Story behind the song
In my late teens and early twenties, in a serious relationship with a man 17 years older than me. Hence, the song "Daddy".
Lyrics
Daddy (1977) C A F C G We stood singing by the water And we couldn't count the days that passed us by And then he kissed me© and called me his daughter And I said "Daddy, oh, you know, you make me high" Did you ever feel that when the sun was shining And the world just couldn't be much more in tune You were in a warm place, with a warm face And somewhere snugly rocking in the womb Woah That feeling I know that it is real So abandon all your sorrows and make yourself feel Put yourself in a place where you might feel free If I call you my daddy and give you my love What are the chances that you'll be there When the rain comes around Don't yell at me daddy, if I act too bad You know I really don't want to make you so mad Let's just stop and listen to the sound Of our singing by the water And we couldn't count the days that passed us by And then he kissed me© and called me his daughter And I said "Daddy, oh, you know, you make me high" We stood singing Bells were ringing Water was dripping Sorrows were slipping We stood singing By the water
