Daddy, come home
Stay with me
Let me hold your hand
Let me sit upon your knee
I see fear
In mommy's eyes
Every time she cries
And tries to comfort me
Daddy's been gone
Gone for so long
For him I pray
He joined the corps
Fighting a war
Somewhere far away
He promised me he'd return
When the Chanukah candles burn
So here I wait
The blessings I recite
By the candle light
But it's getting late
Daddy, come home
Stay with me
Let me hold your hand
Let me sit upon your knee
I see fear
In mommy's eyes
Every time she cries
And tries to comfort me
Daddy, come home
Stay with me
Let me hold your hand
Let me sit upon your knee
I see fear
In mommy's eyes
Every time she cries
And tries to comfort me
It's scary here at home
My mind begins to roam
Have I lost you?
I hear the phone
Mommy's mournful moan
It can't be true!
Daddy, come home
Stay with me
Let me hold your hand
Let me sit upon your knee
I see fear
In mommy's eyes
Every time she cries
And tries to comfort me
