Daughter To Father

Daddy where are you I don't understand
I look to see a void in my hand
I quickly bury my head in the sand
Daddy where are u I don't understand

But I'm rough and tough therefore I am grand.

Daddy where are you I don't understand
What happened back then did u even try
Did you give me away or did they have to pry
Daddy where are u I don't understand

But I'm rough and tough therefore I won't cry

Daddy where are you I don't understand
Is that you that I see in the sand 
I look up there's no void in my hand
Daddy I found you and I understand

NOW I'm rough and tough and I am grand
