Lyrics
Verse 1
She slams the door, says we don’t understand,
Painted eyes and a shake in her hand,
She was braidin’ dolls just yesterday,
Now she’s runnin’ wild in a grown man’s way.
Verse 2
He’s got a car and a crooked grin,
Years on his face where hers ain’t been,
Says he loves her, says we’re just scared,
But a father knows when the math ain’t fair.
[Solo]
Verse 3
Mama cries when the house goes still,
Says “We raised her right, Lord, but she won’t hear,
Her bedroom light burns past midnight,
While we sit up worryin’ through the night.
Chorus
Our little girl’s gone, though she’s still at home,
Slippin’ through fingers we used to hold,
We’re drawin’ lines, she’s crossin’ them all,
Love don’t feel big when your child starts to fall.
God help us be strong, help her come back home,
Our little girl’s gone.
Bridge
I’d trade my pride for one more chance,
To talk instead of take a stand,
Cause anger don’t teach, it just builds a wall,
And I’m scared of the silence most of all.
Outro
If she comes back hurt, or comes back late,
The porch light’s on, it’ll always wait,
We’ll hold our breath, say a prayer at dawn,
For the day our little girl comes home.
