I met you at the age of 21 Looking so fine like a young ripe plum I was the gardener you were the nun I was Maverick you were the girl in Top Gun I pursued you with young freshmen eyes Stomach too small for what the eyes realized Thought I could handle it I took you by the hand I asked you to marry me I knelt on the sand You said yes never a second guess Wait a few years to have babies was the plan Made my dreams hold got an 8 to 4 Working as a stock clerk at Nabisco But I loved you I put you first above all Raised you high so that you would never fall We got more close sexually daily Slipped up and got you pregnant with a baby Upset your parents, didn't tell mine I told you it would be ok in time Chorus: I looked in your eyes pretend to grin Said that I love you and you're my best friend Told you to trust me until the end 'Til death do us part that was the start But I'm leaving (I told you I would never lie) I'm sorry but I'm leaving (and that I'm not like other guys) Letras de cancionesI'm sorry my dear I had to have a meeting with your dad I was very nervous he was very sad You were going jogging I was wearing plaid I knew what I did and I knew what I had It was your attention I had time to stall I told him that I'd get a second job at the mall He said ok but filled with disbelief I said goodbye filled with relief Cause I knew I didn't want to Knew I didn't plan this Knew I had to give up all my goals just to stand this And that really sucked I was so young all I really wanted was to rap and have fun Now I had to work then I really thought about it Did I really have to or would he have fought about it I thought I had to do for myself It was my life it belonged to no one else So I planned to leave a thief in the night Disappear with a trace left a note that felt like Chorus Four years passed I still spinning my wheels Still making demos looking for a record deal You found my address Bumped into my friend Sent me a letter told me silence had to end You had a daughter named her Emily And every time she looked at you it felt like me She was asking questions, "Where is my dad?" And "What did he do mommy to make you so mad?" You said I have to come and finally meet my girl I said that I would if only I could Showed up at the door it was answered by her I knew by her eyes that I was her father I knelt to your level, said "Who are you?" You said "Emily", I said "How cute" I walked you in holding your hand You showed me your bedroom I took a slow pan You said, "Daddy, where have you been? I hope you never ever have to leave again" Chorus From Letras Mania
