Why

Why was that damn bottle So much more important than me

You’d leave me all alone Then be drunk when you got home Those ends would never meet

I was your little girl and you’d fill my head so constant With your dreams

But then the ones that I had were worth nothing you made it it seem

You said were weren’t like all the others You said we weren’t that kind Didn’t go to college weren’t that smart we just made ends meet

Ya know, I got my dreams from you Though you’d never follow through Yeah, you practiced what you’d preach

And now that you’re all gone Where it was just a skippin stone Yeah sometimes I still feel lost

Somewhere was a chance I never had To find somewhat of a real dad You weren’t that bad

And down deep I knew you loved me But it was in between Tween drunk and sober

When there was still some in the bottle You were not mean

You were still my loving Daddy you still loved and cared for me When that demon go awhile and let me see your smile Would let you be

Then you drank down your last bottle You tried to break free But you did not succeed Yeah, you never could get clean

Now I miss you that your gone and I know you went home but I’ll be happy when I see you cause I know that in the end you chose my Lord and Saviour Christ my King
