A little girl sits in her new dress Alone on the cold concrete front steps And cries to herself, wondering when Or if, she'll ever see her father again Why don't we try harder than last time To dry our eyes and smile Someday, oh I'll make time Yeah maybe, but not tonight I'm trying as hard as I Can to believe you Don't lie A killer without a conscience cries Alone in his cold bedroom at night Perpetually asking why, oh why Am I so lonely, while he sharpens his knives Why don't we try harder than last time To dry our eyes and smile Someday, oh I'll make time Yeah maybe, but not tonight I'm trying as hard as I Can to believe you Don't lie You don't get it This is it, your last chance to dance You don't get it, no A father who left his daugher's side And slowly exhales for the last time Someday, oh I'll make time Yeah maybe, but not tonight I'm trying as hard as I Can to believe you Don't lie Someday, oh I'll make time Yeah maybe, but not tonight I'm trying as hard as I Can to believe you I don't believe you I want to believe you Don't lie Dry your eyes and smile
