Don't go


This emptiness inside will not go away, I need you to be okay, I need you to be there for me. One day you better walk me down that aisle. And I mean arm in arm! Not heart in sky. You need to be here to make fun of that boy when he faints as I tell him he's going to be a daddy, You need to be here as I laugh about YOU fainting because your little girl isn't so little anymore. You need to be here Daddy. Because I need you in my life, Without you where is my spirit, Where is my soul. Who else can I cuddle up to when I'm feeling sad, Someone I know will always be there to hug and kiss and protect me. Daddy you better be there, I don't need to bury you before I am an old lady. Where is all that advise I need, Who will give it if you're not there? Don't go away Daddy.
