Baby Girl
Baby Girl
Understand that I love you.
That I do the very best for you;
Unlike your dead beat who won’t do a thing for you.
Although I hurt you, I still love you more than he.
If he really loves you, tell me.
Where is he?
Denying you, and ignoring me.
Lying to the judge about his financial situations.
Dare I mention his words?
“She’s only my daughter under certain circumstances.”
What about the time I fed you?
What about the time I bathed you?
Don’t think about the time I hurt you.
Don’t think about the time I lied to you.
Or maybe I do love you.
Maybe it’s all a lie
This may be hard to hear
But, Baby Girl, I tried…
You have no idea what its cost
You haven’t heard the fights
All I’ve ever wanted was to be your Dad
What your mother did, believe me, wasn’t right.
Now you know the truth
As I can remember, every word you said
I’ve earned for this day
So many sleepless nights I’ve spent in bed
Dreaming of the day I’m with my Princess
The day she smiles back to my words
The day she enjoys my accompanying
The day I have back my Baby Girl.
