Daddy
You didn't kiss me good night.
You didn't come to my bed.
You didn't tuck me in real tight
After my prayers were said.
I didn't sleep well Daddy
I had lots of bad dreams.
I was alone. A monster came.
I called you in loud screams.
Daddy, you never saved me.
I really nearly died
And when I woke up, afraid,
I cried and cried and cried.
Where are you Bestest Daddy?
I miss you very much.
I miss your hugs and kisses
I miss your Daddy touch.
I haven't heard you laughing
In your deep lion roar.
I haven't seen you twinkle
As you crawl on the floor.
And you're the only tickler
Who can make me giggle.
When I think of your tickles
They can make me wriggle.
Daddy, you didn't hold me
And you didn't kiss me.
Where are you Bestest Daddy?
Daddy, don't you miss me?
