I flew down from the back of my mountain
To tell your daughter not to worry
Her little head
You'd be coming home soon
But it's been three years and she's debating
What to do with herself
'Cause she's been waiting so long
She's been waiten for you
Swear I heard her sing
I'm still waiten for you
I flew down from the banks of Virgina
To tell ya she missed ya
'Cause she still does
And I don't blame her
You were quiet the man
She's all grown up now
She moved to the city
Meet a boy from Boston
And they're engajed
You'll never see your baby dressed in white
Oh you'll never see your baby dressed in white
I flew down from the weather vane
On the top of the cabin where you spent you're days Alone
When you were seventeen
And I get it dad I was never enough
And I understand that you've had it rough
But that don't mean that you can take it out on me
Oh I pray to God you don't take it out on me
Truth be told you're not the only one here
And I bet my soul that you won't be the last
But if you ever need a place to lay your head dear
You know that all you have to do is ask
I flew down from the back of your mind
To let you know you're not gonna die alone
Oh-oh-oh-o
I flew down from my perch in the sky
To let you know you're not gonna die alone
