daddy

daddy its your little girl writing to say hi
i was really young when you had to say good bye
i talk to you at night to let you know i care
I’ll never find out why you were never there
i think of you sometimes when i go to sleep
sometimes late at night i lay down and i weep
just to know your not hear to see your grandson grow
makes me hurt deep down just wanted you to know
you’ll never walk me down the isle when i marry my first love
i know you’ll be looking down and smiling from above
i will tell my son about you when he’s old enough to talk
i can’t wait to see him when he learns how to walk
i hope that your happy with the way things turned out to be
i know that I’m your little girl they can’t take that from me
they say that i should hate you for the man that you had been
but if i did what kind of person would i be than
i cant hate you cause i didn’t know you when you were alive
sometimes i wish you would have survived
so i would have known the person they talk about
i don’t know i guess i never will find out
