I have a daughter
Who I've recently met
Its proof she's mine
I took a D.N.A test
She didn't want the baby
She wanted an abortion
I gave her the money
She kept the baby for extortion
That chapter of my life
I'd chose not to remember
She was born August of '96
I met her mom in November (95)
After a wild night of partying
We arrived at a motel
I was wasted and on ecstasy
So, I'm going to spare you the details
When I found out she was mine
I shed so many tears
I know your heart is broken
We've tried for 20 years
Its best for me to leave
Than to cause more pain in your life
If there's forgiveness in your heart
I'll wait for you in the afterlife....
(Maggie is crying)
(Police)
We're sorry Maggie, hard to imagine
What you're going through
Here's some cards with our numbers
Call anytime, we're here for you
As the police exits
Her home
She checks for Mandy
On the phone
(Wife)
Hello, are you still there
(Mandy)
Yes I'm still here
(Wife)
Can we meet somewhere and talk
To get some things clear
(Mandy)
Sure, you just tell me where
And I'll be there
(Wife)
I'll come to you
Just tell me where
(Mandy)
I live with my mom
At 432 SE Ridge
She'll be here soon
She went to the store for cigs
(Wife)
I have a letter from your dad
And his prized possessions
That you're entitled to
But first I want to hear your mom's confession
