Please See My Heart

A FlipSide Production

Dedicated to my one and only child
It's been a long couple years but we're gon' be alright

Please
Please
Please
See my heart

For the first four years I saw you every day
Was there to hug you and guide
Take any the pain away
Our bond grew strong
Like a piece of my heart
Then my love story fell apart

Tears swam down my pillowcase
But you were still here
Cuz I fought for the right
Just to keep you near
First day of school
First recital I was there
And I was proud

Single fatherhood is tough
But we were making it through
With the help of friends and people related to you
And when that was impossible
We still got it done
I go you go
My forever plus one

But one income doesn't work as well as two
With childcare and school pickups
And in time I think I knew
So I had to make a change
And it affected you

Please
Please
Please
See my heart

So we packed up and moved east
A new setting was the plan
Be closer to my family that would
Give me a helping hand
Start a new business to honor your grandmother's memory
It just seemed right

But the pandemic stalled the business and my work life suffered
All the money I had saved was no longer a buffer
But when eight-year-old eyes look for what to do
I put aside ego and do what's best for you
So I let you go
Go back and live with your mother and so
Tears created a pathway down my heart
And now it will be weeks
Til I see you again
I just hope that in the end
That you understand what I went through
And see my heart

Please
Please
Please
See my heart

Please
Please
Please
See my heart

I love you baby girl

Please
See my heart
