    Default Not Good Enough

    Why did you have to go
    didn’t you think I had the right to know?
    Did you ever look back
    And wish you were on the right track
    Or that you could start over?
    I would have let you start over

    Daddy Don’t you love me anymore?
    Please don’t leave me
    I cried as you walked out the door
    I keep replaying it so much in my head
    That it feels like it will split
    and I still can’t fathom it,
    Why did you leave me?
    Didn’t you hear my plea?
    Was taking care of me really that rough
    Or was I simply just not good enough

    Maybe I misunderstood
    When you used to say
    that you would never forget about me
    What you said and what you did
    were always like night and day

    Daddy Don’t you love me anymore?
    Please don’t leave me
    I cried as he walked out the door
    I keep replaying it so much in my head
    That it feels like it will split
    and I still can’t fathom it,
    Why did you leave me?
    Didn’t you hear my plea?
    Was taking care of me really that rough
    Or was I simply just not good enough

    My heart cries everyday in every way
    For what should have been but just slipped away
    Why did you let it slip away?

    Daddy Don’t you love me anymore?
    Please don’t leave me
    I cried as he walked out the door
    I keep replaying it so much in my head
    That it feels like it will split
    and I still can’t fathom it,
    Why did you leave me?
    Didn’t you hear my plea?
    Was taking care of me really that rough

    Good song writing here and great subject matter. Whether this comes from personal experience or just a different perspective, I feel the pain in it. Good job.

    This is truly awesome. I love every bit of it. (One little comment: In the line "I cried as he walked out the door" I would prefer 'you' instead of 'he' to have consistency in the pronouns)
