Dear Sadie,

Sadie, wipe the tears beside your eyes
Never seen you cry like that
And you've been home for three weeks now
I haven't seen you 'round like I used to

Tell me that you're doing fine
'cause I've been laying in my bed all night
Toss and turn I'm wondering, is Sadie
Is my Sadie alright?

I know your daddy left your momma
And you tried everything to stop him
Don't you grow up letting go of everyone who loves you?
'cause you're scared that they might leave you too
'cause he left your mom and he left you

Sadie wipe the tears away
All your pain will fade, will fade like rain
I promise you that
Don't you love yourself any less?
He's a broken man, he never loved himself

I opened up my door, in my moms house
You were sitting there, on my porch
You curled up in a ball, you were shivering
You looked up at me and you said

My daddy left my momma
And I tried everything to stop him
I'm afraid that I'll grow up and push away the ones who love me
I'm scared that they might leave me too
I'm so scared that they might leave me too
He didn't just leave my mom
He left me too
He left me too "
