She whispers to me all about her family, and the father 
she hasn't seen since the day she died, inside...Twenty-
four years there's a lot of pain, a card for graduation 
day...He gave her a name then ran away, forgetting the 
sweetest thing he ever made Maria it's killing me this 
time, the reason, your emptiness inside...I know I can't 
change the way you feel, but if it helps I'll stay right 
here...ah, I'll stay right here, Maria He left the one 
that needed him most...Daddy's little girl left out in 
the cold...I can see him he's dying so much inside cause 
he's never gonna see her shine She said, I never had 
Fathers Day, but that didn't matter to me much 
anyway...It was always the little things that I'd pray, 
please bring my Daddy home to me today Maria it's killing 
me this time, the reason, your emptiness inside...I know 
I can't change the way you feel, but if it helps I'll be 
right here Maria it's killing me this time, the reason, 
your emptiness inside...I know I can't change the way you 
feel, but if it helps I'll stay right here Maria, I'll be 
right here...Maria, I'll be right here...Maria, I'll be 
right here
