It doesn't hurt so much anymore
to know that you won't walk through that door,
it doesn't pain me so to know
that you weren't the man that I grew up knowing.
I only cry when I am beaten with words that tear at my soul,
and I know that someday I'll be able to simply walk away, 
never remembering that you left me unattended in a world 
full of phsycos.

I can only tell you that yesterday I cried,
today I am a grown woman,
tomorrow will come all on its own.
It doesn't hurt so bad because I know that you are happy,
even though there are days when I can't stop the tears.
I know you tried to be the man that I needed you to be,
and I feel blessed that you loved me unconditionally.
One day I will see you and tell you about my woes, 
happy days and then some,
but today I just want to tell you...

It doesn't hurt so bad to know that you are gone,
next month will make a year,
but Daddy it doesn't hurt so much
cause I am all grown up now and no one can touch
the love that I still own for you.
