MOMMY PLEASE DON’T GO by TAWNI BRANZ Copyright 2007...... Mommy, please don’t go... Can’t you just stay home with me?... Daddy goes to work... I need you here – I’m only three... I know you think it’s what you need... You say it’s your career But, mommy, you’re more valuable At home with me – right here... Mommy, please don’t go... There are no rewards out there That can make you feel As great as when our time we share... I know that times have changed – and that The world says you need more But, mommy, won’t you stay with me... Don’t see me as a chore... Mommy, please don’t go... You could teach me how to be Someone who will know That life is not about just me... You say you want to be someone You want to find your worth But, mommy there will never be – Not on this planet earth – A person or a job that can Reflect how great you are Like I can as I grow – you’ll see To ME you’ll be a star... Mommy, don’t you know That family matters most in life When all is said and done It’s more than fine to be a wife – Who stays at home and loves her child With everything she’s got... You mean the “whole wide world” to ME – And, mommy – that’s A LOT!... Mommy, please don’t go There are no rewards out there That can make you feel As great as when our time we share... I know you think it’s what you need... You say it’s your career But, mommy, you’re more valuable At home - with me - right here... Mommy, please don’t go Mommy, please don’t go!!! I wrote that one day after my little girl clung to my neck refusing to let go, sobbing, Mommy PLEASE dont go, as I dropped her off at daycare where strangers work to make a living so that I could go to work to make a living... I thot about it ALL day and realized how messed up it is... (I NEED TO FIND SOMEONE WHO CAN SET THESE WORDS TO MUSIC AND RECORD IT AS A SONG. THE SAME FOR MY LYRICS "MY LITTLE BOY, MY SOLDIER - PLEASE COME HOME
