Daddy, why did you go?
All I want from you is the truth...
Did you ever love me, as much as I loved you?
Do you still think of me at all?
You were my world and I was your girl
I cry most nights, I'm dying inside
My broken heart, caused by your absence
I loved you daddy, and you teared my world apart
Sleepless nights spent thinking of you
Slowly accepting the truth, you're not coming back
Your new family taking over your life
Only have short visits to see you and you are never there.
Until now you have not known the confessions of my broken heart
Author notes
"I am crying, part of me's dying...These are the confessions of a broken heart...
I love you! Tell me the truth... Did you ever love me?"
