It was a cold night in december

The snow lay on the ground

She was coming home from school one night

From the other side of town

It was getting late, there was something wrong

Then i heard the news

A tv flash and by 9 o'clock

They'd found her socks and shoes



Daddy come and bring me home



I didn't know which way to turn

I was shaking like a leaf

I got into my car and drove

Searching every street

Has anybody seen her

Have you found my little girl

She's all i have, all i possess

And to me, she means the world



I can hear her calling

Daddy come and bring me home

Daddy, daddy come and bring me home

Daddy, when are you gonna bring me home



As time went by each silent night

We knew all hope was gone

We knew the light had flickered

From the eyes that once had shone

They caught a man in a bar one night

He confessed to what he'd done

He'd laid her body out in some dark wood

Just didn't know which one,

Daddy, daddy come and bring me home

Daddy, daddy come and bring me home



I just couldn't leave her out there

Lying on her own

'cause she belongs to me

And i belong to her

I know she rests in heaven

With the angels on a throne

But now i hear her calling

Daddy, daddy come and bring me home

Daddy come and bring me home

Daddy, daddy come and bring me home

Daddy, daddy come and bring me home
