Even Though I'm Leaving

歌詞

Daddy I'm afraid, won't you stay a little while? Keep me safe 'cause there's monsters right outside Daddy please don't go, I don't wanna be alone 'Cause the second that you're gone they're gonna know Before he went to bed he grabbed my hand and said Just 'cause I'm leavin' It don't mean that I won't be right by your side When you need me And you can't see me In the middle of the night Just close your eyes and say a prayer It's okay, I know you're scared When I'm not here But I'll always be right there Even though I'm leavin' I ain't goin' nowhere Dad, we'll be late, and Uncle Sam don't like to wait He's got a big old plane that's gonna take me far away I know I act tough but there's a churnin' in my gut 'Cause I just can't call you up when things get rough Before I left he hugged my neck and said Just 'cause you're leavin' It don't mean that I won't be right by your side When you need me And you can't see me In the middle of the night Just close your eyes and say a prayer It's okay, I know you're scared I might be here But I'll always be right there Even though you're leavin' I ain't goin' nowhere Daddy I'm afraid, won't you stay a little while? I never thought I'd see the day I had to say goodbye Daddy please don't go, I can't do this on my own There's no way that I can walk this road alone Daddy grabbed my hand and said Just 'cause I'm leavin' It don't mean that I won't be right by your side When you need me And you can't see me In the middle of the night Just close your eyes and say a prayer It's okay boy, I ain't scared I won't be here But I'll always be right there Even though I'm leavin' I ain't goin' nowhere I ain't goin' nowhere
