He drops his suitcase by the door
She knows her daddy won´t be back anymore
She drags her feet across the floor
Tryin´ to hold back time, to keep him holdin´ on

Refrain:
And she says, Daddy, Daddy, don´t leave
I´ll do anything to keep you
Right here with me
Can´t you see how much I need you?
Daddy, Daddy, don´t leave
Mommy´s sayin´ things she don´t mean
She don´t know what she´s talkin´ about
Somebody hear me out?
Father, listen
Tell him that he´s got a home
And he don´t have to go
Father, save him
I would do anything in return?
I´ll clean my room, try hard in school
I´ll be good, I promise You
Father, Father, I pray to You

Now she hasn´t slept in weeks
She don´t wanna close her eyes
´Cause she´s scared that he´ll leave
They tried just about everything
But it´s gettin´ harder now for him to breathe

Refrain:
And she says, Daddy, Daddy, don´t leave
I´ll do anything to keep you
Right here with me
Can´t you see how much I need you?
Daddy, Daddy, don´t leave
Mommy´s sayin´ things she don´t mean
She don´t know what she´s talkin´ about
Somebody hear me out?
Father, listen
Tell him that he´s got a home
And he don´t have to go
Father, save him
I would do anything in return?
I´ll clean my room, try hard in school
I´ll be good, I promise You
Father, Father, I pray to You

Please don´t let him go, I´m beggin´ You so
Let him open eyes, need a little more time
To tell him that I love him more
Than anything in the world, it´s daddy little girl

Father, listen
Tell him that he´s got a home
And he don´t have to go
Father, save him
I would do anything in return?

I´ll clean my room, try hard in school
I´ll be good, I promise You
Father, Father"

She was daddy´s little girl
