I put my little girl to bed with teardrops in her eyes 

 

 

All day I've tried to comfort her and louder were her cries 

I left her there to say her prayers and stepped outside the door 

 

The prayer I heard was one I knew I'd never heard before 

 

 

Sometimes I'll cry and get my way and mommy's so alone 

Please have my mommy ask my daddy to come home 

 

So if at first I don't succeed I'll cry cry again 

She told me once that when I'm right I never should give in 

 

 

[ steel ] 

 

 

I know our little girl is right and we're both in the wrong 

I can't go on or stand for long the way she cries today 

 

And so I've called you up tonight to ask you please come home 

And I can't go to sleep at night because I heard her pray 

 

Please have my mommy...
