LITTLE ONES LEFT BEHIND.
My Daddy went to HEAVEN,
he's not coming home.
He went straight to JESUS
so he could freely roam.

My Daddy gave his life
so all could be free.
He gave his life proudly,
he loved both you and me.

My Daddy was a soldier,
he sacificed so much.
He said he'd come right back,
he always stayed in touch.

He used to read me stories
and I would fall asleep.
Deep in my heart
his love I now keep.

I really miss my Daddy.
I cry every night.
I used to feel so safe,
he always held me tight.

I want to go to HEAVEN.
I told Mommy I want to die.
I know where my Daddy is,
the preacher would never lie.

My grieving heart
is red, white and blue.
I miss you Daddy.
I will always love you.
