I wonder how I would have been
If my dad had stayed until the end
I didn’t know him very well
I wish I could see him just tell
The moments I cried inside
Because of his absence
And the moments I tried to hide
The truth that I missed him
Though things aren’t the way they should be
Something wonderful has dawned on me
The times with him I never had
Can be spent with You
‘Cause You said You’d be my Dad
