Before Heaven
Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!
My daddy!
My daddy!
Why does he not fight to see me
Why does he not yearn to be with me
Why does he consider me, not a priority
Why am I not of urgent importance to him
Doesn't he miss me
Does he miss my smile
Does he miss my hugs
Doesn't he want to be around me
Surrounded by my love
I know I am grown up now
But the child that left him
When he left her
Still stands at the same place
Waiting for him to return
Her love for him still burns
Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!
My baby!
My baby!
I want to feel like he
would do whatever
Just to see me
His first baby
He would fly the skies
Covering miles
Just to be with me
Does he really love me
Has he abandoned me
Am I a fading memory past
Am I an outcast
Like a shadow cast
Fading fast
That is not really there
I want him near
I love him so much
I miss his touch
I miss his presence
In my life
My greatest fear is that
He will pass away
With no more day
No more nights
Of could be, would be
Maybe, maybe . . .
We will see each other
Be with each other
Father and daughter again.
Before heaven
Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!
