Today I stumbled from my bed
With thunder crashing in my head
My pillow still wet
From last night tears
And as I think of giving up

A voice inside my coffee-cup
Kept crying but
And ringing in my ears
Don´t cry, Daddy
Daddy, please don´t cry
Daddy, you´ve still got me and little Tommy
Together we´ll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, Daddy, please laugh again
Daddy, ride us on your back again
Oh, Daddy, please don´t cry
Why are children always first
To feel the pain and hurt the worst
It´s true, but somehow it just don´t seem right
´Cause every time I cry I know
It hurts my little children so
I wonder will it be the same tonight
Don´t cry, Daddy
Daddy, please don´t cry

Daddy, you´ve still got me and little Tommy
Together we´ll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, Daddy, please laugh again
Daddy, ride us on your back again
Oh, Daddy, please don´t cry
Oh, Daddy, please don´t cry
