And as I think of giving up
-3 4 4 4 4 -4 4 4
a voice inside my coffee cup

verse 2
Why are children always first
to feel the pain and hurt the worst
it’s true but somehow
it just don’t seem right.
Cause ev’ry time I cry I know
it hurts my little children so
I wonder, will it be the same tonight.

Oh da-ad-dy, please don’t cry.
