Orphan
Can't call mom or dad
Both now are gone
The phone will always ring
Because they will never be back home
Their baby girl was not ready
To let them go so soon
My anger directed at God
He took them - I never got to choose
When dad was called to his Heavenly home
I had mom to comfort and tend to
But now that she has made her way to Heaven
I don't know what to do
I cried, I begged, I pleaded
Please, please, please just let her stay
But now I am an orphan
No matter what my age, I was never prepared for this day
Both now are gone
The phone will always ring
Because they will never be back home
Their baby girl was not ready
To let them go so soon
My anger directed at God
He took them - I never got to choose
When dad was called to his Heavenly home
I had mom to comfort and tend to
But now that she has made her way to Heaven
I don't know what to do
I cried, I begged, I pleaded
Please, please, please just let her stay
But now I am an orphan
No matter what my age, I was never prepared for this day
