It was a cold night in December
|
The snow lay on the ground
|
She was coming home from school one night
|
From the other side of town
|
It was getting late, there was something wrong
|
Then I heard the news
|
A TV Flash and by 9 o'clock
|
They'd found her socks and shoes
|
|
Daddy come and bring me home
|
|
I didn't know which way to turn
|
I was shaking like a leaf
|
I got into my car and drove
|
Searching every street
|
Has anybody seen her
|
Have you found my little girl
|
She's all I have, all I possess
|
And to me, she means the world
|
|
I can hear her calling
|
Daddy come and bring me home
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home
|
Daddy, when are you gonna bring me home
|
|
As time went by each silent night
|
We knew all hope was gone
|
We knew the light had flickered
|
From the eyes that once had shone
|
They caught a man in a bar one night
|
He confessed to what he'd done
|
He'd laid her body out in some dark wood
|
Just didn't know which one,
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home
|
|
I just couldn't leave her out there
|
Lying on her own
|
'Cause she belongs to me
|
And I belong to her
|
I know she rests in Heaven
|
With the angels on a throne
|
But now I hear her calling
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home
|
Daddy come and bring me home
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home
|
Daddy, Daddy come and bring me home
|
