No love shown

by Angie Nisley - Pisces

I set by my window and look out,
my heart so full of pain I just want to shout.
My father didn't come to see me again,
I feel like his love I just can't win.
He is too involved with his life and his booze,
if things don't change, my love for him he'll lose.
I can't take much more of his pushing me away,
I wish so much that we could be close one day.
I don't know my father well, and he don't know me,
why can't he see what a great daughter I could be?
I try to call him every chance I can on the phone,
but he never calls back, no love is shown.
It hurts me the most to know that one day he'll no longer be around,
and it will be too late then cuz he'll be resting in peace in the ground.
Maybe he will look down on me from heaven and realize he was wrong,
He will tell me he is sorry and that his love for me was always strong.
I would do anything for my fathers love, and to get to know him more,
I would do anything to hear him say he's sorry for my heart that he tore.
My heart is in pieces and my mind is a mess,
it's killing me not knowing my father, I really must confess.
