[Verse 1]
Saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me something was wrong
I asked her what it was
She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"

[Verse 2]
Oh, I knew what that meant
It meant that I could never see her again
I had seen this once before
I didn't wanna deal with it anymore

[Chorus]
"Look away," she said as she turned to me
And when I tried to hold her, couldn't let her be
Let her be, let her be

[Verse 3]
I said, "Why, why do you make me cry?"
She said, "I love you so
Look away, I don't wanna know"

[Verse 4]
I saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me something's wrong
I said, "What, baby?"
She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"
[Chorus]
"Look away," she said as she turned to me
But, God I, oh, I loved her, couldn't let her be
Let her be, let her be
Look away, look away
She said, "I love you so
Look away"
