She did not understand

A little girl with broken dreams
And a broken heart
She just doesn't understand
Why her worlds falling apart

She doesn't get why
Her daddy had to leave
And now has left her
With so much to grieve

She hadn't seen him in months
And now he's gone for good
He would soon be home
It was mutually understood

They took him away
And promised his return
No changing their mind
No matter her concern

No more bed time stories
And more more playing catch
Father and daughter..
They were the perfect match

He was taken away
To fight for our land
All for a war
She did not understand...
