As I Walk Through The Doors Of Not Knowing Who You Are
A Figment Of You Came Over Me
As Handcuffed Wrists Lead to A Siren Car
Screaming
And Hearing Sounds Of "Please Don't Take My Daddy Away!"
Echoed From A Distance
The Visits With You Last 30 Minutes
Cause Mommy Cried her Eyes Out Each Time She Met With You
So My Time With You Was Cut Short
I'm Looking For The Man I Want To Be
Who I'm Suppose To Be
But I Can't Seem To Find You, Daddy
I Can't Seem To Find That Man
Who Should Have Taught Me How To Tie That Knot On My Shoes
Stand Up And Be A man
Stand Up Straight And Never Fall
How To Say No To Drugs
How To Shave With My First BIC Razor
But You Weren't There
So I've Educated Myself
Because I've Always Been By Myself
And I'm Searching For You, Daddy
Cause I Want You In My Life, Daddy
I Want To Share Times With You, Daddy
A Free Place
Where I Don't Have To Sit Behind A Glass Case Window To Talk To You
I Want To Talk To You
Hold You
Look Into Your Eyes
Tell You That I Love You
Besides All This
I'm Still Your Son
Besides All This
And You Are Still My Daddy
Besides All This
And Some Day I Hope To See You Soon
Besides All This
Cause You Gave Me Life
Although You Weren't In It
So Now I'm Searching For You
Cause I Need You In My Life
And I Want You To Find Me Just As I Want To Find You
So If You Hear Me
Break Down Those Bars
Shatter That Glass Case Window
And Find Me
Cause I'm Here
Waiting
Wanting My Daddy
Cause I Need To Be A Man And Not A Boy Any More
