OPENER/BREAK/CLOSER
The love
between the two of us was dying - And it got so bad I knew I had to leave
But halfway down that highway - When I turned around I
saw My little daughter running after me
Now it broke my
heart to tell my little daughter - That her daddy had to run to catch a train
She had no way of knowin' I
was leavin' home for good - I turned around and there
she was again
If only
for the sake of my sweet daughter - I just had to turn back home right there
and then
And try to start a new life with the mother of my
child - I couldn't bear to hear those words again
Left allemande and weave
around the ring
She cried (As she said to me) (She cried and said)
Daddy, don't you
walk so fast - Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Daddy,
slow down some - 'Cause you're makin' me run -
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
