My daddy's gone for good
All my life all I wanted was for u to tuck me in bed...
And to wake up, just to jump in bed between u and mommy
But instead all I got was a good nite from mom...
And a tear for each day you weren't there.
I needed you to pick me up when I scraped my knee
And to wipe away my tears when the little boys made me cry...
All I wanted was my daddy by my side
To take care of me when I wasn't feelin'... right.
You left me in the rain- so I could cry
And watch all my dreams fade away.
You walked out the door, never saw me born
And you never even thought twice about walking back in my life.
I wake up to a brand new day and you're still not here
But it's... okay.
I'm sick an tired of making wishes on my birthday
That you'll come... and you won't hurt me.
I'm all cried out from the tears my mother couldn't shed
So I cried for her- all the pain she went through
She raised me alone and she had to love me all alone
'Cuz you couldn't accept the responsibility of being a man.
All I wanted was my daddy by my side
To take care of me when I wasn't feelin'... right.
You left me in the rain- so I could cry
And watch all my dreams fade away.
You walked out the door, never saw me born
And you never even thought twice about walking back in my life.
I wanted a family like the black and white TV shows
Where mommy stayed home and cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner
And wasn't tired from slavin' over the stove...
While daddy bought home the bacon
And we'd smile... for just no reason at all.
But all I got was a reality program
And I had to be happy with what I had.
Now I have a father in my life who makes me happy
And my mommy is his wife.
He has no problem with loving me and caring for me.
I couldn't deal with the fact that he luved me
That's why I put him through so much
And he stayed... he didn't run away like he was scared
He's a real man!!
I was so stuck on the fact that you didn't love me
so I didn't want anyone to love me.
All I wanted was Love... and all I got was tears
From a man I have to call my dad
You're not in my life, so don't try an come back
As if everything's is all right... 'cuz it's not!
So, now I'm fine with a family that cares and loves me
I hope you're happy- ALONE -and I wish you'd think about me everyday
'cuz there's not a day goes by that I don't shed a tear for you...
All I wanted was my daddy by my side
To take care of me when I wasn't feelin'... right.
You left me in the rain- so I could cry
And watch all my dreams fade away.
You walked out the door, never saw me born
And you never even thought twice about walking back in my life.
