Daughter You Never Wanted
I could erase that lonely feeling
Of you leaving me that day
I could take all of the pictures
Of you and me out of my photo album
And throw them all away
But no matter what I do
I can;t seem to shake
All of the memories of you
Out of my head
I wake up in the middle of the night
Wondering why you left me
Wasn't I good enough for you?
I could've given you everything
You needed from me, to make it through
I could've prooved you wrong
And showed you I was different
I may be a girl, but we still shared the same world
Until You disappeared one night
Without saying one goodbye
And yeah I know you never wanted me
I still wish you could've seen
What a great daughter I could've been
If you only stuck aorund
All I'll ever know now
Is I'll always be
The daughter you never wanted.
You abandoned me just when
I needed you the most
I knew our life was difficult
But I guess a part me still hoped
that through our rough times
You would've stuck around
And I wouldn't have been left
IN the shadows wanting to be found
I could've been the daughter
You were proud of
But you didn't stick around
To find out.
