(Intro)
Yeah…
Your daddy still cries for you…
Since the 21st of July 2023
Nothing’s been the same…
Your family misses you every single day…
This one is for you, my angel.
(Verse 1)
I still remember every smile you gave,
Every little laugh, every game we played,
Now the house feels colder than before,
’Cause your tiny footsteps don’t run anymore.
Sometimes I sit alone inside my room,
Holding all your pictures in the quiet gloom,
Asking God why He took you away,
When we still needed you to stay.
Your voice still echoes in my mind,
A precious memory time can’t hide,
And every night before I sleep,
Your daddy breaks down and weeps.
People say that time will heal,
But they don’t know this pain I feel,
A father’s heart can never mend,
When he loses his little best friend.
(Hook)
Oh Masego Daddy misses you tonight, your family still cries for you.
(Verse 2)
Your grandma still talks about your smile,
Your family hurts in silence all the while,
Every birthday feels incomplete,
Without your laughter filling up the streets.
The pain comes hard when the night gets deep,
Sometimes your daddy can’t even sleep,
I stare at heaven through the rain,
Begging just to see you once again.
I miss the way you called my name,
The way you ran to me when you played,
I’d give this whole world just to hold
Your tiny hands one more today.
And when I hear your favorite song,
I close my eyes and sing along,
Hoping somehow you can hear
Your daddy’s voice from heaven near.
(Bridge)
Sometimes I feel you in the wind,
Like your spirit visits me again,
Sometimes I see you in my dreams,
And nothing hurts for a moment it seems.
If heaven had visiting days,
I’d come running all the way,
Just to hug you one more time,
And tell you daddy’s doing fine.
But truth is… I’m still broken inside,
Still trying to survive,
Still learning how to breathe
With this emptiness in me.
Your family lights candles for you,
Prays for you, cries for you too,
Because losing you changed our lives forever,
And forgetting you? Never.
(Verse 3)
Your pictures hang upon the wall,
And your daddy still talks to them all,
Telling you how much you’re missed,
And how painful this journey is.
Some days I smile through the pain,
Some days the tears fall like rain,
But one thing I’ll always know,
Is my love for you will forever grow.
You were my joy, my shining light,
The reason my dark days felt bright,
And though God called you home too soon,
Your love still fills every room.
I know one day we’ll meet again,
Beyond the clouds, beyond the pain,
And when that beautiful day arrives,
Your daddy will finally feel alive.
(Final Hook – Emotional)
Oh Masego…
Daddy misses you tonight,
Oh my angel child…
Rest peacefully above,
Wrapped inside eternal love.
Though heaven took you far away,
Your memory lives with us every day.
And daddy promises through every tear…
You’ll always be here.
(Outro)
21 July 2023…
The day our hearts broke forever…
Sleep peacefully, my angel…
Daddy loves you… always.
