She sits by her window and calls out to her mama every night.
Every now and then she sees a flickering light.
She knows her mama is right there watching over her.
Daddy still cries because he says it hurts.
She sings her mamas favorite song.
Just to feel close to her, because sometimes she isn't very strong.
She has to watch daddy's heart break every time someone mentions her name.
For mamas death, daddy still takes the blame.
There was nothing he could do when mama was on her death bed.
She was mentally ill and took her own life because of the voices in her head.
But daddy keeps saying that he should of watched over her more.
I think daddy's heart is still feeling sore.
So now I watch over daddy because I don't want him to die to.
Mama tells me every night that she knows what I should do.
I tell daddy that I love him, every night.
I tell him that it's not his time to cross over the light.
But daddy keeps saying that he should of watched over her more.
I think daddy's heart is still feeling sore.
