He packed his bags and never looked back, so they say.
But his little girl remembers it differently.

Did you know that she prayed everyday for you to come home?
Did you know she would stay up late and wait for you to walk through the door?
Did you know she still believes in you?
Did you know?

Her mother told her he was never coming home,
But she still had hope even four years down the road.
She's still waiting....

Did you know that she prayed everyday for you to come home?
Did you know she would stay up late and wait for you to walk through the door?
Did you know she still believes in you?
Did you know?

She no longer asks when daddy's coming home.
Now she wonders why he choose to go...
