A little girl sits in her new dress
Alone on the cold concrete front steps
And cries to herself wondering when
Or it, she'll ever see her father again
Why don't we try harder than last time
To dry our eyes and smile?
Someday
Oh, I'll make time
Yeah maybe
But not tonight
I'm trying
As hard as I
Can to believe you
Don't lie
A k**er without a conscience cries
Alone in his cold bedroom at night
Perpetually asking, "why, oh, why
Am I so lonely?" while he sharpens his knives
Why don't we try harder than last time
To dry our eyes and smile?
Someday
Oh, I'll make time
Yeah maybe
But not tonight
I'm trying
As hard as I
Can to believe you
Don't lie
You don't get it. This is it
Your last chance to dance
A father who left his daughter sighs
And slowly exhales for the last time
