  • I wait for the postman to bring me a letter
    And I wait for the good Lord to make me feel better
    And I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders
    A family in crisis that only grows older

    Why'd you have to go?
    Why'd you have to go?
    Why'd you have to go?

    Daughter to father, daughter to father
    I am broken but I am hoping
    Daughter to father, daughter to father
    I am cryin', a part of me's dyin'
    And these are, these are
    The confessions of a broken heart

    And I wear all your old clothes, your polo sweater
    I dream of another you, one who would never
    Never leave me alone to pick up the pieces
    A daddy to hold me, that's what I needed

    So why'd you have to go?
    Why'd you have to go?
    Why'd you have to go?

    Daughter to father, daughter to father
    I don't know you, but I still want to
    Daughter to father, daughter to father
    Tell me the truth, did you ever love me?
    ?Cause these are, these are
    The confessions of a broken heart, of a broken heart

    I love you
    I love you
    I love you
    I, I, I, I love you

    Daughter to father, daughter to father
    I don't know you, but I still want to
    Daughter to father, daughter to father
    Tell me the truth, did you ever love me?
    Did you ever love me?
    These are the confessions of a broken heart
    Oh yeah
