Oh my Daddy


The door is inching open

the light hits her face

her Daddy needs to hear her pleas

in their secret little place

 

oh my Baby oh my Baby

Daddy needs you so so much

oh my Baby oh my Baby

Daddy knows you like his touch

 

He takes her by the hand

and leads her to their room

she shuts her eyes, screams silent cries

and hopes its over soon

 

oh my Baby oh my Baby

Daddy needs you so so much

Oh my Baby oh my Baby

Daddy knows you like his touch

 

Then there came a day

when they took Daddy away

Daddy dont go, you are all that i know

Daddy I beg you stay

 

oh my Daddy oh my Daddy

how I love you so so much

oh my Daddy oh my Daddy

please stay and I'll let you touch

 

The door is inching open

but shes safe now in her bed

she takes some pills, and hopes it kills

the voices in her head

 

oh my Baby oh my Baby

Daddy loves you so so much

oh my Baby oh My Baby

Daddy knows you like his touch
