Daddy -

Little did we know
That soon you wouldn’t be there
If we could’ve seen the pain
In your eyes
Maybe we wouldn’t be here

You told me you hated it
You said it wasn’t fair
You believed that
Soon I wouldn’t be there

I saw a chance
And I believed in one hope
I rested my faith
On you
And you alone

You never let me fall
And you never gave up on me
I just wish that
We could be as strong
As you were willing to be

It was just your birthday
And I kept trying to reassure you
That it was okay
You barely spoke
I just didn’t know
That you were soon going away

I never imagined
That you’d be the one
Who wasn’t going to be there
But, now it’s happened
This is what’s not fair

There were so many jobs that
You were supposed to do
Being my father
And being that
To so many others too

Everyone loved you
And I know why they did
You were my daddy
And none can compare

Daddy I’m begging
Please come back someday
I never thought I’d lose you
But, here we are today

If I can’t see you now
Then I’ll see you in Heaven
I’ll work my hardest
To make it some day
Just promise me
You’ll help me on the way

I was
And will always be
Daddy’s little girl

Daddy, I love you
I promise now
That I’ll never let your memory fall

You’ve given me life
Now you’ve taken yours
The sacrifice
Wasn’t worth it at all

I promise you now
That I’ll make it someday
Just not tomorrow
And just not today

There’s so much happening
That I wish you could see

Just tell everyone up there
That I love them
And make sure that
Jesus is watching over me

I’ll never forget you
I promise you that
This is my hope
And final request

Please just know
That you’ll always be my daddy
And you know the rest…
