I'm dying to be in your arms tonight
I know our lives will change
This was a way to start anew
Because I knew we neeeded it
Now I just wanna hear you say
"Son I love you"
I am homesick
With my family not knowing where I am
There's no way they miss me more
Than I do them
I just want him to hear me say
"I regret not saying this before
I need you, more than you need me
Its why I miss you so much
Father"
Father,
Your disapline through fear shapped me
I was once intimidated and scared
As there were days I dared
To test you, I did wrong
But I learned my leason with a swift fist
And the only thing that made me feel better
Was knowing that someday I'd leave
Now I have and the days are exponentially difficult
Now that I need you
You are not there
When I was young
I'm sure there was a song you sung to me
Well, now I sing to myself
And its not the same
I miss you dad
I love you dad
