You told me you'd be right back
And I was the last to see you

But you never came back
You don't know how much I need you

You're not here because you don't want to
You used to say I didn't love you

But you broke my heart that day
The day you're life got in the way
When you decided to end it all
Just one blow to make you fall

So nothing else would be important
Nothing to stress you out
You don't care that you left us
you didn't have enough doubts

I can't see you
I can't stand you
I can't hate you
I can't love you

You know I would never leave you
But it's hard to forgive when I can't see you

You were pretty quick to leave me
It's hard to believe that this could be
And how could you leave

I'll never see you face to face
There's nothing anyone can say

They say they want to give me space
Space is getting in the way

and I don't want to think about my future
Every day that you'll be gone

I won't see you grow old
I wish every day that I was wrong

And to think of walking down that aisle alone
Sure someone will be there
But not a father I call my own

To think of what to tell my kids
Tell them what their grandpa did
The man they'll never ever meet
Because he just didn't want to be

and you know that father daughter dance
well I'll never get that chance

I just pray I'm not to blame
for your mistakes
for all your shame

For whatever it is that made you want to go
I can't stand up
You stooped too low

What could you have done
What could have happened
Why did life lose all it's worth?

You're not here because you don't want to
You don't believe it but I always loved you

I couldn't miss you more
And I'll never forget the day you walked out that door

You told me you'd be right back
And I was the last to see you

But you never came back
You don't know how much I need you
