immature father

Lyrics

I call and apologize for telling you another lie
It makes me die inside to know how many nights you cried and cried

Heartbreak, I made so many mistakes, what's it take to make -up for you and I's sake? What about the other hearts I had to break -to be with you for all the rest of my days.

2 kids plus 2 kids equals 4 hearts that never asked for this. It you're keeping score just know divorce can be so traumatic.

Now I act all shocked and confused but what were they supposed to do? Hate was automatic.

It simmered under the surface and I know nobody's perfect. I was so immersed in 2 persons that my kids got neglect and lost all respect for my coercive aspect. Correct to object and reject my suspect and derelict effect on their emotions. Unfamiliar notion.

I have lied to myself all this time about my responsibilities to my children. I let them down somehow. If I knew then what I know know. Maybe wisdom could help to clear the clouds in my vision.

Because all I see in retrospect
is an immature father doing this or that
to take care of my kids.

I worked two and sometimes three jobs
to pay the bills and not be a slob.
I love my kids now more than I did
ain't seen 'em in 10 years
ain't spoken in 10 years
ain't heard their voices in 10 years
but I'm still here

I miss you
(I miss you)
(I miss you)
I miss you
