Today I stumbled from my bed
With thunder crashing in my head
And my pillow still wet
From last night's tears
And as I think of giving up
A voice inside my coffee cup
Kept crying out
Ringing in my ears
Don't cry daddy
Daddy please don't cry
Daddy you've still got me and little tommy
Together we'll find a brand new mommy
Daddy daddy please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh daddy please don't cry
Why are children always first
To feel the pain and hurt the worst
It's cruel but somehow
But don't seem right
Cause every time I cry I know
It hurts my little children so
I wonder will it be the same tonight
Don't cry daddy
Daddy please don't cry
Daddy you've still got me and little tommy
Together we'll find a brand new mommy
Daddy daddy please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh daddy please don't cry
Oh daddy please don't cry
