Of course I don’t want you to find another guy
I still want us to be a family
I don’t wanna be like none of them
I want y’all to still be together
Not thousands of miles apart
I don’t want you to date any of them
I miss the good old days
I should have seen it coming
I mean daddy was husband #4
I don’t want you to remarry
All the family portraits
We were so happy
And now we’re not even a family
I want you to be happy
So I guess I shouldn’t say anything at all
I’m gonna go into my shell
I mean three unknown dudes are supposedly coming
And I’m not gonna talk
I just want you to be happy
And if it means giving up a lot then I will
Just don’t expect me to talk
I can go three years
And I will
I won’t like them
I’ll just act like I will
Sure daddy may not be your love anymore
But why move on so quickly?
What do you think it does to me?
Sure I’m old enough to understand
But it doesn’t mean I do
Because I don’t understand
I’m clueless right now
All I know is you’re gonna be dating again
And my dad won’t be no where near me
But I can’t cry all the time
Sure he wasn’t the best dad
Yeah, he didn’t really try
But doesn’t mean I want a stranger to try
It scares me; yet I gotta do it
Just so you can be happy
I’m willing to do anything
Just so you can be happy
Even though I’m gonna be miserable
And I can’t talk about it
You won’t understand
So I’ll keep quit
And cry myself to sleep at night
It gonna break my heart seeing you kissing another man
But I can handle it
Just so you can be happy
