I woke up this morning, the room felt empty and bare
As i turned to the closet, your clothes were not there.
As i walked into the kitchen, i found our little girl with a note
as i read it to myself, the tears began to flow. And she said..

Please daddy don't cry that way
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k.
Please daddy don't cry so hard,
you don't know how it scares me and i wish that you would stop
Please daddy don't cry that way
'cause I'm right here beside you and i promise that I'll stay

I looked down at her, through tear stained eyes
It's as though you were there, in a tiny disguise
She clutches her pajamas with that soft little hand
See all this that is happening, she can't quite understand
and she says...

Please daddy don't cry that way
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k.
Please daddy don't cry so hard,
you don't know how it scares me and i wish that you would stop
Please daddy don't cry that way
'cause I'm right here beside you and i promise that I'll stay

I'm searching my heart, and trying to explain
But the words that come out are swollen with pain
she looks through my eyes right down to my soul
sees all the hurt that i can't control
and she says

Please daddy don't cry that way
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k.
Please daddy don't cry so hard,
you don't know how it scares me and i wish that you would stop
Please daddy don't cry that way
'cause I'm right here beside you and i promise that I'll stay

Please daddy don't cry that way,
I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay
