If I Could Turn Back Time, My Baby Girl

I miss you, my daughter, every single day

It's been so long since I could see your face

I know I failed you, let you down along the way

If I could turn back time, I'd love you in every way

I remember carrying you on my back to play

Singing lullabies when you wanted to stay awake

Your little hands would hold mine tight

And your laughter made every shadow bright

Hold on, my darling, be brave, don't let go

I see your strength, the courage I've come to know

I'm sorry for the pain, the tears I caused inside

Please come home, let me hold you once again

I made mistakes I wish I could erase

Gave you heartaches I can't replace

Your sister misses you, dreams of you every night

I pray someday we can make it right

I've faced the storms, felt the world weigh me down

But faith and hope lifted me off the ground

I know you're strong, just like I've tried to be

You'll shine with peace and joy for all to see

I wish I could hug you, just one more time

To tell you I'm sorry for every wrong line

I've carried the weight of our lost years

But my love for you will dry all your tears

I'll be a better father, if you let me try

I'll lift you up, wipe every tear from your eyes

Your laughter, your joy, I'll cherish once again

I'll guide your heart, my daughter, through the pain

Hold on, my darling, be brave, don't let go

I see your strength, the courage I've come to know

I'm sorry for the pain, the tears I caused inside

Please come home, let me hold you tonight

Yes, I love you, my baby girl, more than words can say

I'll be the father you deserve, starting today

Every moment, you're in my mind

My heart, my prayers, forever intertwined

Please come home, my darling, come back to me

Together we'll heal, together we'll be free
