Why you went away
Why you left us stray
Why you never felt to call
Why you slipped away

Why you were so strict before
Why you never sat and talked
Why were you so cold and never thawed
Why we felt so small

Why we wish you were never there
Why we felt that life was bare
Why on earth we never cared
Why we want to be somewhere fairer

Whys and whys but all we want
is to know that you love and care
