I lock myself in this bathroom
Crying for you
I want my daddy
Where is he
I hold a picture of him
In my hands
Maybe if I hold it tight enough
He will come through
I cry into the mirror
Maybe he’ll hear
His little girl wanting him near
Daddy I need you
Why haven’t you come
You didn’t come for sometime
And when you opened the door
I wasn’t a little girl anymore
I was a women crying for a man
You took to long daddy
I grew up without you
So don’t get hurt when I say
Excuse me, to a stranger
