Lyrics

Hey Dad are you out there?
I'm having a hard time getting by
I feel like I'm nowhere
I'm thinking about how to survive
Wish things could be different
I missed throwing the ball out in the yard
But now there's a distance
Cause we both left with broken hearts
I think about the wasted years
With each and every falling tear
Now all I do is wonder why
We never got to say goodbye
I have to face this world alone
I'm still that boy no hand to hold
I'll kick and scream and say it loud
I only wanna make you proud
Hey Dad are you out there?
I'm learning how to make it by
I'm getting somewhere
I've got two boys and they rely
On me to be different
I'll throw them the ball out in the yard
But still there's a distance
Cause growing up is really hard
I think about the wasted years
With each and every falling tear
Now all I do is wonder why
We never got to say goodbye
I have to face this world alone
I'm still that boy no hand to hold
I'll kick and scream and say it loud
I only wanna make you proud
Hey Dad are you out there?
I'm doing more than getting by
Sometimes I look back at the years
With each and every falling tear
And I don't have to wonder why
I'm glad we didn't say goodbye
And I may face this world alone
I'm still that boy but I have a home
I'll hold my head up say it loud
I hope in some way that you're proud
Hey Dad are you out there?
I'm having a hard time getting by
