Lyrics:

Today, I stumbled from my bed with thunder crashing in my head, my pillow still wet from last night tears
And as I think of giving up, a voice inside my coffee cup kept crying out, ringing in my ears

'Don't cry, daddy, daddy, please don't cry
Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy
Together we'll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
Daddy, ride us on your back again
Oh, daddy, please don't cry'

Why are children always first to feel the pain and hurt the worst? It's true, but somehow it just don't seem right
'Cause every time I cry, I know it hurts my little children so, I wonder, 'Will it be the same tonight?'

'Don't cry daddy, daddy, please don't cry
Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy
Together we'll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
Daddy, ride us on your back again
Oh, daddy, please don't cry
Oh, daddy, please don't cry'
