Daddy's Girl MAG
Last night i dreamt i saw your face
I saw you smile at me
i thought i heard you say hello
but i knew that couldn’t be
You said you loved me
but i didn’t believe
so i turned to walk away
but as i walked
in the mirror beside me
you kindly asked me to stay
somehow i knew you were sad
i could tell
i saw your despair
in every tear that fell
you repeated again
in a slow, low tone
you begged and pleaded
for me not to go
i scream because i hear your voice
I’m your flesh and blood
so really had no choice
you never cared enough to call
or find out how i was
to you i was just a memory
crushed, blown away like dust
you turned your back most
you tied your pain below
i cry because I’m just like you
somehow i think you know
you bowed your head
and closed your eyes
and told me you would try
try to be a better dad
forever until you died
i believed in every word you said
at first it made me smile
then i woke up and realized
all your words were lies.
