Daddy, there was so many things I’ve wanted to ask you
Before you left
Daddy, I never even had the time to learn to know you
As my friend
But Daddy it’s all those lonely nights I cried myself to sleep
In my bed
That's when I prayed to God above to bring my Daddy home
 
Sometimes life treated us so badly without you Daddy
To dry the tears
But mama was there to ease away all the pain
And all the fears
Daddy I know up there in heaven you can listen
To what I’m saying
I need the answers to all these questions
That I’ve been praying
 
Why did you leave so soon
Did you fly on a golden moon
And was there no words to tell
Or even just a wish you well
Mama said you won’t be back to stay
So, I got down on my knees and prayed
And asked the Lord above to bring my Daddy home
 
Daddy, I really hope you found the peace that you were always
Searching for
Daddy, I know you’ll be waiting there for me
At heaven’s door
Daddy I’ll be keeping all the memories so safe
Here in my heart
Now I ask the Lord above to take my Daddy home
 
Why did you leave so soon
Did you fly on a golden moon
And was there no words to tell
Or even just a wish you well
Now I know you won’t be back to stay
So I get down on my knees and pray
And ask the Lord above to take my Daddy home
Now I ask the Lord above to take His angel home
