I Miss my Daddy. Thats it. That's all.


“I’m going see a man bout a mule, pumpkin.” are the words you spoke to me

And apparently that man lives on the moon you see

Because why else have you taken so long to return to me?

I’m left singing your part of the duet you wrote for me

Climbing the stairs in rooms in which you broke the door for me

Counting it all joy the trinkets and the toys - cause you wanted more for me

Staring at my reflection with eyes like yours ever adoringly

Believing that when the sun shines it’s you adoring me

Don’t you know you meant more to me

Than all the diamonds and pearls & Princess things

I could be dancing and drowning in glistening streams

Still I’d trade it all to see you smile and wink

To hear you say “Don’t think”

To be the center of your world

It’s me, Daddy, your little girl

I’ve been wondering if you’re really coming lately

Cause ‘Don’t you remember you told me you loved me, baby?’

Well, don’t cha?
