Why Daddy
I know he hurt you in the past.
But those bad memories they wont last.
I bet you wonder everyday why your daddy went away,
Doe's he love you
You don’t know
If he does
Then why did he go
I went through the same with my daddy to
I will tell you this its not you
Yes we were messy
A little loud
Sometimes even stood out in a crowd
Would not go to bed when we were told
Always wanted daddy there to hold
This is not the reasons that daddy’s go
They leave us for reasons we may never know
Now that I am older I finally see
Daddy never wanted to leave me
He sheds a tear every day
From the time he went away
You will be older soon
So don’t be blue
My daddy loves me
As much as yours loves you.
