Story Behind The Song
As my husband and I were breaking up, I was torn about the decision.
Though still in love, the complication of MS, multiple sclerosis, entered our lives. The constant arguing during the last few months of the marriage was causing enormous stress and making my symptoms worse. But was breaking up going to make anything better?

Lyrics
Oh Daddy, I know it's time that we should part
but I want you to know your the only man that I carry in my heart.
Oh Daddy, I didn't want you to have to leave
but we both could see it was killing me and now you're gone.
I cry without you and I cried you
and now your memory will have to keep me company
ow hoo Hoo hoo hoo--
it doesn't get easier each time that we break apart
it's just a more adult situation, it's still a broken heart
Oh Daddy, I didn't want you to have to leave
but we both could see it was killing me and now you're gone.
I want to fly way but then I want you back to stay
is just another sad situation I think it's time to pray
oh Daddy I know it's time that we should part,
but I want you to know your the only one that I carry
in my heart, and now you're gone, now you're gone
