Dont Cry Daddy

爹,不要哭

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 out
And ringing in my ears.

Don't cry, daddy,
Daddy, please don't cry .
Daddy, you 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 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.
