story behind the song: for all those who have lost someone
Lyrics
little girl sat quietly
tears in her eyes
listening oh so solemnly
as her world changed tonight
no more mommy
no more tickle fights
no more daddy
no more finger wrapped tight
is that why, why she cries?
no toadstool to weep on
just a comfortable couch
where her daddy sat down
and used to slouch
no more mommy
nor her reassuring touch
no more daddy
no more kisses, no more hugs
is that why, why she cries?
you should be happy
their pain is all gone
remember the sappy,
the joy and the fun
you see your mommy
in those faces drawing near
and you see your daddy
in those faces who care
that is why, why we cry
that is why, why we cry
