Oh My Daughter - Mikhail Bennett
Your little shoes by the doorway
Still haunt me in the night
Pink ribbons on the staircase
That I was never inside
You used to wait by the window
With hope I never saw
I was chasing empty glory
While you were chasing a father
But I hear your silence louder
Than any crowd I knew
All the money in the world
Couldn't buy back you
Oh my daughter
I wasn't there when you needed me
I was a shadow in your daylight
Blind to what I should have seen
Now I watch you choose a man
And I pray he treats you right
Cause I never showed you how
A real man loves his child
You learned your worth from strangers
From boys that spoke too sweet
Looking for protection
In hearts that couldn't keep
If I'd held you closer
If I had fought your tears
Baby, you wouldn't question love
All these broken years
I see it now
You were difficult
You were distant
You were just hurt
And I was absent
Oh my daughter
If I could turn back time
I'd trade every selfish moment
For one more chance to be kind
I can't rewrite your childhood
But I'm begging on these knees
Forgive the man I used to be
And let your heart be free
