Well 12 years just doesn't seem long,
To a little girl who's daddy's gone.
Although it's tough I've gotta stay strong,.
Although it's rough I've gotta hang on
To her he meant the world,
But what can I say?
She was daddy's little girl.
He once was here but now he's not,
But rest assured he's not forgot.
And even though I miss him a lot,
I think of him more often than not.
To her he meant the world,
But what can I say?
She was daddy's little girl.
And as I watched them drive away,
The only thing I did was pray.
God please let daddy be okay,
I'll do anything so he can stay.
To her he meant the world,
But what can I say?
She was daddy's little girl.
Mama please don't cry,
God wouldn't let daddy die.
So wipe the teardrops from your eye,
Somehow we're gonna get by.
To me he meant the world,
But what can I say?
I am daddy's little girl.
Well 12 years just doesn't seem long,
To a little girl who's daddy's gone.
Mama please don't cry,
Even though daddy died.

So sad and sweet. Thanks for sharing it. Your dad really was the kindest and best of men.
You're welcome. It's strange because I know that I wrote this when I was 12, pretty recently after he died, but I don't actually really remember writing it... And I showed it to NO ONE for a really long time. So actually having it on the Internet is pretty huge for me.
