Daddy’s Little Girl

(Little Girl Speaking)

It’s been seven years Daddy, why did you leave? Do you know what it’s like not having you? Your children, does that even mean anything to you? Our family fell apart when you left, Daddy. I keep trying to forget you, move on and be strong but I can’t shut you out Daddy. I wish I could play some of the songs I know from my favourite bands, let you see how they feel, how I feel. I try to imagine how you feel, how you could have done this to us. I try, I really do ... But how much can I try answering the questions that I don’t even know, how, Daddy?

(Verse 1)

Dear Dad, I’ve been thinking about all the things we used to do
When I was little, and I had you to call upon, to hold my hand
When I was nervous, had a nightmare
You were always there (Little girl: You were always there, Daddy)

(Chorus)

But hey, they say
That daddy’s little girl will be all right
As long as her dad is by her side
But you left me, yeah! You broke me
But look at me, I seem to be just fine.
‘Cause I ain’t my daddy’s little girl no more,
No I ain’t my daddy’s little girl no more.

(Verse 2)

Dear Dad,
Why did you leave me?
I was an eight year old, nowhere to go
But you left without a goodbye
Why did you do it? If you knew how badly it would hurt me
Oh how it would completely destroy me
But without a thought you packed up and left
No warning that our lives would change for good

(Chorus)

But hey, they say
That daddy’s little girl will be all right
As long as her dad is by her side
But you left me, yeah! You broke me
But look at me, I seem to be just fine.
‘Cause I ain’t my daddy’s little girl no more,
No I ain’t my daddy’s little girl no more.

(Verse 3)

Yea-aa-aa no no no
I’ve grown up, let you go, and I write this down one last time
To say I’m getting things off my mind. I sign this off and say
That I forgive you, and that I miss you, but I ain’t my daddy’s little girl no more, yeah, I ain’t your little girl no more!
