I read about you today
Grief stricken, I had to pray
The past is the past that's what they say
But you left a hole in our hearts when you walked away
You left us here
Unable to dry our tears
Don't you see
All just to be free
Never hearing your name
We loved you all the same
But a man came to take your place
An angel, our saving grace
The papers said you were a good man
That you were a leader with a gentle hand
It said you slept on the street
Tired, with aching feet
Addicted to drugs with no one to hug
Daddy, you had our love
We searched for you each day
Our hearts broken, words we longed to say
You could of come home
Put our fears at bay
We were only children when you lost your way
But our pain did stay
Now your gone and it's to late
Daddy, why couldn't you see
It's our love that would of set you free
