You promised me
that you'd come home
but here I sit
by myself, alone.
Why did you lie to me
and raise my hopes so high?
Now they're ground to dust,
just tell me why.
How do I explain to her
that her daddy's not home?
How do I explain your lies
and the reason that you're gone?
I am the one that must dry
her poor, unhappy, tear-stained face
while you remain where ever you are
running around all over the place.
