Abigail Rose

Abigail rose
Before the dawn
School and chores
Already done
Momma died
When she was young
Growing up
On daddy's farm

She kissed his cheek and said goodbye
Waved from the window on the bus
Tears in her eyes
She told herself
I feel the distance between both of us
Both of us

She left
For what she was hoping for
Her looks
Would surely open doors

He asked as
She packed to go
You want so much to be away from here?
You're beautiful
Like your mama was
Do strangers have to tell you so?

He stared at flames in the fireplace
Think of his girl with the pretty face
Abigail Rose could've been a star
But the world would never know

Dreams of
Mountains cold and snow
His daughter screams
As the bus
Left the road

Abigail Rose
Could have been a star
