"Somebody's Daughter" lyrics - LILLY HIATT

Hello, California
This is where it began
I was lyin' by myself
She had it all in her hands
To the delta with my daddy
Then to Tennessee
I ain't lookin' for a savior
Just tryin' to be me

[Chorus:]
'Cause it ain't in the water
It ain't in the wine
I am somebody's daughter
And I'm gonna be fine

I've been lookin' for a beach
I've been lookin' for a break
I've been lookin' for relief
From a simple handshake
I'm sorry that I hurt ya
I'm sorry that I fled
But I gotta see the ocean
Gotta make my own bed

[Chorus:]
'Cause it ain't in the water
It ain't in the wine
I am somebody's daughter
And I'm gonna be fine

I've got my hands where you can see 'em
There's just hope in the air
You do all kinds of leavin'
Just to come back bare
I'm lookin' at the skyline
Wanna jump right in
I think you knew
That I'd be home again

[Chorus:]
'Cause it ain't in the water
It ain't in the wine
I am somebody's daughter
And I'm gonna be fine

[Bridge:]
And my searchin'
It may leave me alone this time
But the sand is clean and I know
I'm gonna be fine

Hello, California
Can you see I've grown up?
I made some amends
I got over that stuff
I'm just happy to feel
A little light on my face
I'm just about over the moon
For this place

[Chorus:]
'Cause it ain't in the water
It ain't in the wine
I am somebody's daughter
And I'm gonna be fine

[Chorus:]
Well it ain't in the water
And it sure as hell ain't in the wine
I am somebody's daughter
And I'm gonna be fine
