our only daughter - john bucchino lyrics
[aggie]
we’ve never been kind to her, tom
we always treated her cold
i’ll never forgive myself for that
we always favored the boy
we did, tom
god rest his soul
we always treated him good
gave him whatever we could
but not the girl
she never asked for much
because we taught her
not to expect too much
our only daughter
we managed to send him to school
though he never wanted to go
dropped out, joined up, and off he flew
she had her college picked out
but that was when business got slow
we couldn’t give her a dime
she had to start working full*time
to help us through
she never asked for more
because life taught her
that there was nothing more for
our only daughter
we gave him all that we had
and what is there left?
a flag and some medals to throw in a drawer
you say this check is our future
but that’s not the truth
i say your kids are your future
and though there’s no way we can buy back her youth
we can still give her one perfect day to remember us for
please, let’s give her this one thing, tom
one thing that’s special for her
one thing she’ll smile about all of her days
a beautiful catered affair
with friends and family around
a big satin photo book
she can look at when times get bad
think of her mom and her dad
and the only bit of joy we ever brought her
our one remaining child
our little
girl
our only daughter
