Because of broken promises

A little girl is huddled

In a corner crying tears

Because of broken promises

And all of the missed years



Every time her daddy said

I will be there for you

Because of broken promises

She knew it wasnt true



She missed him so greatly

But wanted him to leave

Because of broken promises

She needed time to grieve



He promised her mumma

That he would try so very hard

Because of broken promises

She threw away his cards



She tried to see through the pain

And listen to her heart

Because of broken promises

From the very start



She did her very best

To make her daddy proud



he was never ever around



She needed her dad to be there

But he said his work was more important

Because of broken promises

She couldnt handle any more



She never knew her daddy well

Or how much he could love

Because of broken promises

She had had enough
