don't worry, my angel
daddy will be home soon

i know he's been a while
but don't let that waiver your smile
he truly loves you so
he’d never let you go
it doesn’t always show
but always know
that you are his definition of joy
his definition of pride
his definition of home
you have his ever-shining eyes
and his spirit of love is within you
use that to understand
that even though daddy loves you so
he can’t always hold your hand
he can't always be at home
but you’ll never be alone
i know you miss him
but look deep within
he's always in your heart
just close your eyes
and imagine his smiling face
sun-kissed and oh so lovely
picture being in his arms
and think of all his cheesy jokes
it'll help you get by
it hurts, it does
but baby girl,
always know
daddy will
return
because
no matter where in the world he lives
you* will always be his *home
i wish i could carry your smile in my heart for times when my life seems so low. it would make me believe what tomorrow could bring when today doesn't really know.
