You Promised Me
You said you’d
Never leave me
Y…
Never leave me
You promised
Every time I asked
So why am I sitting
Here in my bedroom
Tucking my pillows
Around me hugging
Them close to me
You promised Daddy
You’d never go a way
You said I would
Always be your
Little girl your
Only one but
Mommy said
You went a way
That you had to
Go visit a new
Home way up
In the sky
You promised Daddy
You would never leave me
And yet here I sit with
Teary cheeks and red eyes
My heart is broken
You broke your promise
Daddy please come back.
