The word yearning I never understood so much,
Now I feel the pain of burning oh come back
Or else my life means jack
You see that love of a parent is unconditional and so rare
You left a hole burning
Too much escape of air
Leaving' me gasping' and feeling' bare
Oh daddy please come back, please come back
Every day I cry wondering', why oh why??
Why did you leave me crying?
It's time you should've been buying [buying]
When I first heard the nurse I thought she was lying
But now all I see is cracks appearing
Tearing my world apart
A yearn a girl my age shouldn't be bearing [so young]
[inna]
Words that should never have touched my tongue
Sp please come back, please come back
I use words to pour out my heart
Knowing that it'll never bring you back
Coz after all this life means jack
Candles represent your life
The wick runs so quick
Too much to handle
Anguish the dominant pain
Reeling from this feeling
When I know I should be healing
I was too roped up in futile hope
Too blind to see
You'd never re-enter through the door
So now ima pour my heart out
And away you'll part
Oh daddy please come back, please come back
[ima let tears escape on this track]
Need to stop bearing this pain
Coz it keeps me searing' away
Never thought you'd leave so soon
Couldn't you wait at least till June?
Thought you had minimum 6 years
But now waters escaping called tears
Your departure on my shoulders like weight
But I guess that fate
Oh daddy please come back, please come back
Without you I juggle my days
They're such a struggle but I plough on
Knowing that I can't have you now
Everything with you is past tense
Life now just doesn't make sense
It's not right nor fair
I'll say this again you left me bare
So i sit and bide my time
Hoping that the pain will soon subside
Getting over you's a task
But one last time I'll ask
Oh daddy please come back, please come back
Memories of you keep on flashing
Like a knife
Keep on slashing
Keep on bashing
Away you've blown like a kite
My life needs to be put right
So now I'll fight
So maybe soon there won't be no tears in sight ;'(
