I cried for you...

Looking at the paper...

and not knowing what to write...

I knew one day I would have to face this...

I never learned to love...

The man who was supposed to love me left...

Incomplete from that moment on...

Hate built in my heart...

Cold and incapable of loving another...

What was so bad that you had to go ?

I saved money to get you...

But it wasn't enough....

My mother cried for you...

But that wasn't enough...

So I cried for you...

Days on days I cried for you...

I hated you because you were not there to catch those tears...

I was broken....

Ashamed and didn't know how to move forward...

Thought you said no one could hurt me...

Thought you said wait for you....

Thought you said you'd be home...

Never even got a chance to say goodbye...

You never got to see me blossom...

You missed my prom...

You missed my heart ache....

After you no one could fill those shoes...

Of being the man in my life.

Daddy ever since you left I've cried for you...

I've wondered how they could take you from me?

I've wondered who would give me away at my wedding...

I've wondered who would dance with me?...

Who would love me unconditionally?

I know you're hurting too...

I know you hate it too...

When I saw you last I cried because you had changed...

I cried because I had changed...

I stood before you humbled...

No one would ever know how badly I wanted to make you proud !

I cried because I knew it hurt you to watch me leave...

I cried because I know you think men aren't supposed too...

I cried because I knew you wouldn't ...

I cried because I heard your heart beat when we hugged...

Dad if I never got a chance to tell you , I'm still proud of you....

And even tho I got older...

I'll always be daddy's little girl...
