When dads leave their children, they can’t imagine the broken hearts they leave behind. Christmas is a special day that children want to share with their families, including their daddies who are far away.
Dolls, a bike, or a kite, are some of the toys I might see tonight. But, all I really want with all my might is just for my daddy to come home tonight. Oh, what a sight it will be, for him to see his little girl sitting near the tree. Even though toys are fun, and they can make me happy, they can never replace seeing your face.
Daddy please come home, I’m your only child. Your child, who misses your smile, who needs to be hugged and kissed goodnight. You were always here to turn out the light, but now my heart yearns because you are out of sight.
You told me that I was your girl, every time you gave me a whirl. I know that you are out there, somewhere in that great big world. I’m here daddy, just where you left me, with mommy. Daddy, won’t you please come home, just for me? Just for Christmas?
