Little girl you`re still far too young
To have a heart that`s been so broken
It might seem like you ain`t got no one
Well I`m here for you
Told your mamma before she died
That I`d stay right by your side
I had to leave for just a little while
But now I`m here for you
Hardest part there is about dying
Are the ones who get left behind
I know your mamma wouldn`t want you crying
So I`m here for you
I loved your mamma more than she loved me
When you were born I was far from Tennessee
I came back home to hold you close to me
Now I`m here for you
You`re far too precious to lose
I only want what`s best for you
And that might not include me
Well I know it`s true
I`m here for you
