Hello, it's me, your only son
|
Writing to you now because I haven't seen you in so long
|
Even though we live in the same home
|
You're the father that I've never known
|
I get up each day, you're already gone
|
Drive past your office late at night
|
And see the light still on
|
Why do you care more about your job
|
Than about the family falling apart?
|
Don't even know you
|
Can't understand you
|
Never stopped to think of anyone else
|
Hello, my boy, your letter hurt me so
|
18 years I've worked so hard, while I missed seeing you grow
|
I was just trying to provide for you
|
All my efforts thrown back in my face
|
Every morning I say a prayer for you
|
As I lose another day making it the best for you
|
Someday you'll wake up and you'll realize
|
And you'll thank me for how hard I tried
|
It's always been about you
|
But I'm a person too
|
I feel like giving up
|
I've had about enough
|
I gave up more for you than you'll ever understand
|
But you were never there for me when life went bad
|
Son, I always tried to give you all the things I never had
|
But all I ever wanted was a dad
|
