Watching my daughter grow up with some one else

I sit back and wait, till my day finally comes
When I get to see me baby and hold her in my arms
As we leave she cry's, she doesn't want to go
It kills me inside, but I know she doesn't know
She knows I'm her daddy, but does she really know what that means
A concept so hard to understand, for a little girl who's only three
I hold her and spoil her for I'm not sure what else to do
Trying hard to make sure she doesn't forget, her daddy loves her too
I've made many mistakes, I've dug many holes
Trying to climb out, is my one major goal
Know matter what happens, know matter where I go
I hope my baby always understands, I'm sorry I let her mommy go
I was young and immature, only twenty-two years old
I gave up the biggest part of my life, I sold away my soul
Now I only see my baby but a few days a month
While someone who's not her daddy gets more attention and love.
