Alfie Sosa - Daddy I Promise Lyrics

She stares at that ring on her finger
With both hands clenched on the wheel
The road ahead is long and painful
The Texas heat dried off her tears

A night of rage and full of anger
That her makeup cannot conceal
After he slammed the door behind him
She wiped the blood and grabbed her keys

Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me

His name is flashing on her cellphone
She can predict what he might say
The same tired old excuses
A U-turn she's not gonna to take

Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me

She hasn't been in that house in a long time
The memories don't bring her joy
Her father is smoking on the front porch
Pride is something she can't afford

Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me

Daddy I promise you one more thing
This time is different, please take me in
I got my baby asleep in the back seat
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he comes looking for me
