Father's Daughter - JPV

Father's Daughter is the third song. Nidria ( Katrina Rose Dideriksen ) longs for a better world and wants to prove that she is more than just her father's daughter, more than just the princess. It is preceded by Make Believe and followed by The Mysterious Man.

Lyrics
[NIDRIA]

Hear the bustling square

Sunlight fills the air

The bakers bake, the peddlers trade

The blacksmiths forge the butcher's blade

But then they look at me

All they see is a girl on display

[TOWNMEMBER 1]

Does the king know her whereabouts?

[TOWNMEMBER 2]

She shouldn't be wandering this route

[TOWNMEMBERS]

Nidria is not like us

She is from the upper crust

[NIDRIA]

I will show them who I really am

They'll understand that though I love my father

I'm more than just his daughter

I'll make my voice be known

Maybe then I won't feel so alone

And don't you ever wonder

What is on the other side

Of the mountain pass

Our other half

There must be something more

A life left to explore

On the day I take the crown

I'll say trust in O, it's all around

With baited breath, they'll expect a princess

This is what they'll get

[TOWNMEMBER 1]

Do you think she can fill his shoes?

[TOWNMEMBER 2]

I wouldn't care to bet my boots

[TOWNMEMBERS]

She's never worked a day in her life

How could she ever lead the light

[NIDRIA]

I'll show them who I really am

They'll understand

Don't you ever wonder

What is on the other side

Of the mountain pass

Our other half

And though I love my father

I'm more than just his daughter

I'll make my voice be known

I won't feel so alone

One day I will be the queen

Of the light

Why do I then find my mind

Wishing for a different life

All I have is O and this feeling that I know

What's beyond these walls of stone

It's in my bones

All I have is O and this feeling that I know

What's beyond these walls of stone

One day I'll know
