Your mother and I apologize for the life you've been deprived
Our daughter's been reassigned
Trauma and surprise are emotions tough to hide
So baby girl, please don't you cry
I did my best, we both sacrificed
But sometimes no matter how hard you try
Things just don't seem to work out right
But I recognize the look in her eyes
Whenever her name happens to arise
Just for the sake of the child
Can we be a little more civilized
Either way, I'd give my life
For a chance to make this right
It takes time but we'll pull through
Paisley Sue, someday I will be back for you
I know it's been said and done
And things are better left alone
A little girl can be terrible
Especially when you'll never know her
And you'll miss seeing her grow up
You won't be there to kiss her goodnight
Now her life has been compromised
Without her father by her side
