I wrote this one on a rainy day. Idle mind / devil’s playground sort of thing.
Yesterday, their mom said hi
Came to see if I’m all right
And I told her so
Now I can’t let go
Of the one thing on my mind…
I miss them
They grow too fast
Time moves on and I still ask
Forgiveness, when I get sad
I might be old, but I’m their dad
I look back on the times we had…
And I miss them
Man, I miss them…
I learn to live with the pain inside
Ocean deep and one mile wide
Lord knows, how hard I’ve tried
I still laugh, and I still cry
But not a day in life goes by
When I miss them
They grow too fast
Time moves on and I still ask
Forgiveness, when I get sad
I might be old, but I’m their dad
As I look back on the times we had
And think about how much
I miss them…
When the walls are cavin’ in
I think back and I begin
To understand the reasons why
I do my best to occupy
The days alone
Lost inside an empty home
‘Cause I miss them
They grow too fast
Time moves on and I still ask
Forgiveness, when I get sad
I might be old, but I’m their dad
As I look back on the times we had
And think about how much
I miss them…
Man I miss them…
