I put my little girl to bed with teardrops in her eyes

All day I've tried to comfort her and louder were her cries

I left her there to say her prayers and stepped outside the door

The prayer I heard was one I knew I'd never heard before

Please have my mommy ask my daddy to come home

Sometimes I'll cry and get my way and mommy's so alone

She told me once that when I'm right I never should give in

So if at first I don't succeed I'll cry cry again



I know our little girl is right and we're both in the wrong

And so I've called you up tonight to ask you please come home

I can't go on or stand for long the way she cries today

And I can't go to sleep at night because I heard her pray

Please have my mommy...
