Much The Same Father & Son

Hello, its me, your only son

Writing to you now because I havent seen you in so long

Even though we live in the same home

Youre the father that Ive never known

I get up each day, youre already gone

Drive past your office late at night

And see the light still on

Why do you care more about your job

Than about the family falling apart?



Dont even know you

Cant understand you

Never stopped to think of anyone else



Hello, my boy, your letter hurt me so

18 years Ive worked so hard, while I missed seeing you grow

I was just trying to provide for you

All my efforts thrown back in my face

Every morning Id say a prayer for you

As I lose another day making it the best for you

Someday youll wake up and youll realize

And youll thank me for how hard I tried



Dont even know you

Cant understand you

Never stopped to think of anyone else



Its always been about you (about you)

But Im a person too (Im a person too)

I feel like giving up

Ive had about enough



Dont even know you

Cant understand you

Never stopped to think of anyone else



I gave up more for you than youll ever understand

But you were never there for me when life went bad

Son, I always tried to give you all the things I never had

But all I ever wanted was a dad
