Daddys Little Girl

Why do they fight?

I don't know why.

She just wants to be daddys little girl

in his eyes.


Why do they fight?

He always so mad.

The few moments they share,

they make her so sad.


Why do they fight?

She's no longer a child.

She's a teenage girl,

and her heart runs so wild.


Why do they fight?

She's a grown woman now.

He doesn't give her respect,

He doesn't know how.


Why do they fight?

I don't understand why.

She just needs his approval,

in order to fly.


Why do they fight?

It only makes her cry.

Now that he's passed,

She'll never know why.
