WOW. You have tackled a sticky subject well. It is a message that needs to be told. Maybe then--healing can begin. I think lyrics and music like this can help a person rise above the pain and break the cycle of child abuse. Love does cover a multitude of sins.

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen. I agree with your sentiment and I believe that we must get the word out somehow and music seems to be the best way I know. Thank you for your support. Listen to They Wonder, I think you will enjoy that as well. All my best to you and yours and keep warm.
Frank
Here is the Lyric
“Don’t Cry”

I walked away
You walked away
There was nothing more that we could say

We didn’t hold on
And try to make it work
To get past the pain
Of all the senseless hurt

And we just couldn’t see
Beyond the pain
That caused us both to disagree

And I’d have never made the bet
That both of us
Would start to feel this much regret

Chorus:
Don’t cry
Don’t you cry
Cause we don’t have to say goodbye

Don’t cry
Don’t you cry
Cause we don’t have to say goodbye

I lied, you lied
Told each other
Everything was alright

Didn’t know just what we had
And since we’ve been apart
Life has been so sad

But in our hearts and minds we see
You and I were always meant to be

Chorus:
So don’t cry
Don’t you cry
Cause we don’t have to say goodbye

Don’t cry
Don’t you cry
Cause we don’t have to say goodbye

Break:
This time we’ll make our feelings clear
This time we’re both gonna share
What’s in our hearts and what’s in our minds
And I know we’ll come to find

That this love
Was meant to be
In this world
There’s only you for me
And we will never
Walk away again
From now until forever we’ll be lovers
And the best of friends

So Don't cry
No don't you shed a tear
Cause I'm the one who's always gonna be here

So Don't cry
Don't you ever fear
Cause I'm the one who's always gonna be here

So don't cry
No don't you cry
Cause we don't have to say goodbye

Repeat until End:

Here are the lyrics to Daddy.
Sorry I sent the Lyrics to Don't Cry by mistake.
All the best to you.
Frank



“Daddy I Love You”

Daddy’s late in coming home again
And mama’s alone in her bedroom sittin on her bed
She used to yell and carry on
And wish my daddy dead
Then she’d hang her head
And the tears start to shed

In the early morning hours
Daddy stumbled in
And when he came through those doors
He was nobody’s friend

And what the hell
Did the back of his hand
Have to do with becoming a man?

It’s taken all these years
To finally understand

Chorus:
I need to hear him say
Daddy’s not the same today
And that he’s found
He’s found a better way

And if he did
I’d forgive him and say
Daddy I love you
Daddy I love you

When I was a little boy
I lived my days in fear
Of daddy’s anger
After one too many beers

He’d rip the phones from the walls
Punched holes through all the doors
And then my daddy
Knocked me senseless to the floor

Chorus:
And I need to hear him say
I’m sorry that I caused you pain
And that he wished
He could make it all go away

And if he did
I’d forgive him and say
Daddy I love you
Daddy I love you

Daddy up and left
When I was still a little kid
And I don’t know if he ever thinks
About his many sins

But, if he called tomorrow
And said I’m sorry for the things I did
I’d say I love you
And daddy
I forgive

Repeat Chorus Until End

Frank,
Wow, really powerful song, great lyrics. I really thought it was well done. A couple of the cartoon pictures decreased the powerful vibe you have going there. Sort of got pulled in by the photos and then lost it at some of the cartoons - don't know why but just noticed that as I was watching. Nice job

Thank you Tracy, I think I did that to take the edge of a very difficult song. Probably wasn't the best Idea, but I'm glad you liked it. All My life I have to put laughter into things where I'm uncomfortable talking about it. Maybe I'll edit it to let people feel without the break by a cartoon. Thank you so much for the commentary.
