It was a cold night in December |
|
The snow lay on the ground |
|
She was coming home from school one night |
|
From the other side of town |
|
It was getting late, there was something wrong |
|
Then I heard the news |
|
A TV Flash and by 9 o'clock |
|
They'd found her socks and shoes |
|
Daddy come and bring me home |
|
I didn't know which way to turn |
|
I was shaking like a leaf |
|
I got into my car and drove |
|
Searching every street |
|
Has anybody seen her |
|
Have you found my little girl |
|
She's all I have, all I possess |
|
And to me, she means the world |
|
I can hear her calling |
|
Daddy come and bring me home |
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home |
|
Daddy, when are you gonna bring me home |
|
As time went by each silent night |
|
We knew all hope was gone |
|
We knew the light had flickered |
|
From the eyes that once had shone |
|
They caught a man in a bar one night |
|
He confessed to what he'd done |
|
He'd laid her body out in some dark wood |
|
Just didn't know which one, |
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home |
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home |
|
I just couldn't leave her out there |
|
Lying on her own |
|
'Cause she belongs to me |
|
And I belong to her |
|
I know she rests in Heaven |
|
With the angels on a throne |
|
But now I hear her calling |
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home |
|
Daddy come and bring me home |
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home |
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home |
