Happy family

My Dad is gone to live else where
He left 8 children with a wife
Who all loved him just too much?
He loves us just the same, we thought
Oh, but now, he's gone.
I hear my mom cry every night
My sisters and brothers
In the dark
We listen hoping the doorbell will ring,
And hell come back.
Sitting with the slightest chance
He might just come home tonight.
Like every night
They go to bed with prayers in their hearts
Hatred growing within me
I can'tt believe my dad left my mom
And to think we once were a happy family
