Daddy .. Why ..

Daddy, do you hear me?
Im standing right here.
I know you can hear me,
I know this is your good ear.

But Daddy, do you see me?
Im right before your eyes.
I know you can see me,
I know you think theyre lies.

Tell me, Daddy, whats wrong?
Youre crying and Im scared.
I know you heard the news,
I know you werent prepared.

But, Daddy, we feel it too,
Why dont you understand?
I know you want me here,
I know you want to hold my hand.

So, Daddy, why dont you?
Why dont you let me in?
I know you want to hide,
I know you feel it within.

But Daddy I need you,
Thats what you just dont get.
You dont know Im scared,
You dont know I wont forget.

Daddy, he looked so different,
He just didnt look the same.
I know you still loved him,
I heard you whisper his name.

So, Daddy, just tell me,
When will you smile again?
I dont like how its hurting you,
I dont want you to feel pain.

Daddy, Im here,
Just to let you know.
Even if hes physically gone,
His place will never go.
