Where Were You Father?
Where were you when I called?
when I searched all over for your love?
for your kind protection and your words?
for a father's hand to hold?
Where were you when I was alone?
when I didn't understand the world?
when I needed help to not to fall?
cuz the holes were too big to jump on my own?
Where were you when I prayed on my knees?
for a man who could come and be there for me
so I could finally be a girl beautiful and sweet
and not an easy prey walking on the streets?
Where were you father? why you didn't fill up my needs?
