lyrics

and she screams "mom where's my dad"
and she cries "baby i wish i knew"
and she says "why's dad been at work so long
and she cries "he had a meeting this morning"

have you seen my father?
he worked on such and such a floor
have you seen my father?
because i watched him walk out my door

and she screams "daddy I love you!"
and she screams! this makes her mom cry more
and she screams "daddy I love you!"
and she screams! this makes her mom cry more

then dad walks in
soot in his hair
but poor daddy he is missing an arm
missing sleep for the rest of his life

he is home
he is so safe now
he is home
he is so safe now
he is home
her her mom is safe now

and she cries
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
and she cries
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
