Daddy Used To Love Me

I once lived in a perfect world

As a princess, not an ordinary girl

My crown disappeared when he walked out the door

Daddy used to love me, but he doesn't anymore



A fairytale turned shades of blue

By all the things that he did do

Like rain the tears began to pour

Daddy used to love me, but he doesn't anymore



Walked out and left me so confused

Emotionally I'd been abused

And did he forget? Or does he ignore?

Daddy used to love me, but he doesn't anymore



Memory flashes now and then

Wondering what made it end

What did I do that he couldn't stay for?

Daddy used to love me, but he doesn't anymore



We were so close and now so far

No phone calls, no birthday cards

Maybe caring was too big of a chore

Daddy used to love me, but he doesn't anymore



Now living in a world of pain

Wondering, was I to blame?

Curled up, crying, on the floor

Daddy used to love me, but he doesn't anymore



Trying to pretend that it doesn't hurt

Wearing a smile though I feel like dirt

I put up a front for those I adore

Daddy used to love me, but he doesn't anymore



I want to go back to how it was before

Back when daddy loved me cause he doesn't anymore

I don't know what to do, or even what to say

If daddy really loved me, he wouldn't have gone away
