Four o'clock this morning
 
 That familiar noise
 
 End of bedtime stories
 
 I've put away my toys
 
  
  I'm not afraid of shadows
 
 Don't look under the bed
 
 Headlights on the ceiling
 
 Are passing by instead
  
 
 And now I sit here crying
 
 And I'm trying to be strong
 
 Now that daddy's gone
  
 
 Four o'clock this morning
 
 Close the window blinds
 
 I don't believe my brother
 
 That you left us all behind
  
 
 So where were you this evening
 
 Dinner's empty chair
 
 Mommy stared in silence
 
 Daddy, don't you care
  
 
 Alone and left to hunger
 
 What it was I did so wrong
 
 Now that daddy's gone
 
 Oh now that daddy's gone
  
 
 Four o'clock this morning
 
 I lie awake alone
 
 Time has taken over
 
 Now that I'm gone
  
 
 Today I found old pictures
 
 Of painful memories
 
 I recall a child screaming
 
 "Where's my daddy, please?"
  
 
 And all that I remember
 
 Is what I call my own
 
 Now that daddy's gone
 
 Now that daddy's gone
 
 Now that daddy's gone
  
 
 Daddy, where'd you go?
