She was five years old in her Sunday dress
How long she'd been sitting there was anyone's guess
Her blonde locks glowed like a halo bright
Longin' for Daddy to pull up that night
Mama said, "Baby, he'll come home soon"
So the little girl waited, watching the rising moon
Eyes blue as the sky, heart big and true
But Dad was spending time with someone new
Precious little girl on the porch all alone
Waiting for her daddy, who wasn't coming home
From a window mamma watched with her heart about to break
Seeing her sweet child gazing with that longing ache
Where are you, Daddy? I'm waiting here for you
I'm loving you so much—and missing you too
Time kept turning, the years rolled slow
She learned how deep that silence could grow
Each birthday passed with an empty chair
While she blew out candles without daddy there
She grew up kind, and seldom complained
Her love was blind, though the ache remained
She was never his pride, and never his joy
And it left her feeling like an abandoned toy
Precious little girl on the porch all alone
Waiting for her daddy, who isn't coming home
From a window mamma watched with her heart about to break
Seeing her sweet child gazing with that longing ache
Where are you, Daddy? I'm waiting here for you
I'm loving you so much—and missing you too
When she got the message that Daddy had died
Her tender heart broke as she paused and cried
Then a breeze came softly, a moment so sublime
While her daddy's soul held her one last time
Precious little girl never truly alone
His spirit can see now and he wants to atone
Your mama's tears have long since dried away
But you remember that porch and feeling so astray
Where are you, Daddy? I sense you here tonight
I feel you loving me SO much—and holding me tight
