A Daughters Question

F Gm Am C

F                    Bb              C
The time had finally come to end our marriage
    Bb                C             F
The love that we once shared had to end
       Bb               C       Dm       C      Bb    F/A
And we knew it would be hard to tell our little daughter
G                         Gm   C
Daddy would be moving out today
      F            Bb               C
So we waited until we could wait no longer
        Bb            C             F
Then we tried to be as gentle as we could be
    Bb          C              A              Dm   Dm/C
And after I had kissed her and quickly walked away
Bb                          C
She followed me outside and called to me

           F   Bb        F
She said, "Daddy, please tell me"
    Bb                                  C
Her eyes so filled with tears she could not see
Bb               C              Dm C Bb
"Now that you've stopped loving mommy
        F/C              C              F
Does it mean that you've stopped loving me"

F Gm Am C

        F         Bb                C
And the words she uttered cut right through me
      Bb                C             F
And I realized what she must be going through
   Bb              C                Dm       C         Bb    F/A
To know that those two people whose love had brought her life
     G                                        Gm  C
Were strangers and there was nothing she could do
      F            Bb           C
And I knew that my words of reassurance
             Bb             C              F
Would be the most important words I'd ever say
     Bb           C               A       Dm   Dm/C
So I tenderly and lovingly put my arms around her
      Bb                                C
And I asked my god to please show me the way
         Bb          C
I said, "Honey, your mom and I both love you
Bb                C                  F
Much more than you could ever really know
Bb                C                 Dm     C   Bb  F/A
And the love that she and I had for each other
G                                           Gm C
Still lives in you and with the years will grow
F              Bb                          C
And don't ever think that just because I'm leaving
Bb                      C                        F
That your daddy doesn't love his precious little girl
Bb           C               A             Dm   Dm/C
I'll always be here honey if you ever need me
Bb                            C
So you'll never again have to say those words."

           F   Bb        F
She said, "Daddy, please tell me"
    Bb                                  C
Her eyes so filled with tears she could not see
Bb               C              Dm C Bb
"Now that you've stopped loving mommy
        F/C              C              Dm
Does it mean that you've stopped loving me"
F             C                 F  Gm Am C F
Daddy, please don't stop loving me
