I can’t believe after all of these years I still miss you
|
Why won’t your memory leave me the same way you did
|
Taking all but my pride honey one things for certain
|
Missing you’s nothing compared to missing the kid
|
|
She was the light of my life she could brighten the darkness
|
If not for her we’d have nothing to show for it all
|
You took what’s left of what once was my reason for livin’
|
Livin’ without her is no reason for living at all
|
|
Someday shell ask you to answer a lot of old questions
|
What will you tell her about me if she wants to know
|
She was too young to remember the reason you left me
|
If you found a reason to tell her I’d sure like to know
|
|
I tell myself that it’s all for the best if I don’t try to see her
|
Seeing her now would not make up for all she’s been through
|
Watching two people she once called her mother and father
|
Acting like stranger that’s something I just could not do
|
|
I can’t believe after all of these years I still miss you
|
Why won’t your memory leave me the same way you did
|
Taking all but my pride one things for certain
|
Missing you is nothing compared to missing the kid
