It's a little late, I know.

-----------------------------------------------

          I used to call you Daddy,

but you've been missing for

too long.

          I missed you so much back then,

but I don't care to

worry any more.

          I grew up while you were away,

and through all my pain and joy,

you never held my hand.

          In all your difficulties,

of mine you never knew.

          If only you'd stuck around,

          rooting me on,

I could have been Daddy's Little Girl
