You Forgot Something

(for Paris Jackson, daughter of MJ)

You forgot Daddy, upon leaving
to look Me in the eye
You forgot Daddy, to tell Me, it's
allright to cry
You forgot Daddy, to say I can
make it, if I try
You forgot Daddy, to tell Me, that
One day, We all gon' die
You forgot Daddy, to say I'm sorry
that it's goodbye
You forgot Daddy to give Me, an
explanation why
