- I'm sorry.
- If it was up to me,
- I would've stayed home.
- Called them on the phone;
- And tell'em I couldn't go.
- I tried to stay with you.
- Cause your my shineing star.
- But I can't get the wonderous light from you,
- Because I'm way to far.
- So I gave you a hug &kiss,
- and told you "I love you".
- Tears streaming down your cheeks,
- you knew I was leaving you.
- I started backing away, an opened the door.
- Then paused, thinking I should promise you I'll come back.
- But what for?
- I know this road will be dangerous, and I might not make it.
- So I turned around, gave her a coin, and said take it.
- Without another word, I jumped in my car, an drove away.
- The last thing I heard you say...
- Was, "Please don't go away..."
- /Sing/
- I'm sorry, I had to hurt you.
- But it needed to be done.
- If I didn't do it, you'd be on the run...
- Looking for me.
- So, I'm sorry Hailie...
- But daddy...
- Had to go.
- I'm telling you now,
- It was the hardest thing I had to do.
- Just the look in your eyes,
- I could tell it killed you.
- Killed me to, but I gotta keep moving on.
- So in rememberance of you,
- I'm writing this song.
- I know it's been a long time,
- since that day.
- And you remember it as your father left,
- what can I say?
- If I could've brought you with me, I would.
- Even if I know I shouldnt've.
- Because that would put your life in danger.
- So I knew I really couldn't.
- But I do miss you,
- And wanna see your smile..
- Even though I know it's been awhile.
- i hope you don't hate me.
- Haven't been in touch lately.
- But I'm telling you...
- I loved you since you were a baby.
- And I always will.
- Hailie...
- I love you.
- Don't you ever, forget that.
