Yeah

I know sometimes, things may not, always make sense to you right now

But hey, what daddy always tell you?

And if you ask me to

Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird

I'mma give you the world

I'mma buy a diamond ring for you

I'mma sing for you

I'll do anything for you to see you smile

And if that mockingbird don't sing , and that ring don't shine

I'mma break that birdie's neck

I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya

And make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (ha ha)

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.
