I sit here and wonder if I'm gonna hear from you today
It's been about a year now. I don't think you're about to change, today.
And if it's okay, I'm gonna go on about my day.
'Cause you were never here anyway.
Yeah, I hope that's okay. Better be okay.
It was my birthday, today.
No messages from you I'm only a phone call away.
You're too involved with your new life just like back in the day.
You're still the same, today.
You tried to ruin our lives but here's what you didn't know
Yeah we're still doin' okay today.
Sometimes I sit here and wonder about you
But not today, no not today.
I'm sick of all these tears, dad. Why did you have to be that way, those days?
But look at who I am now look at what I've learned from all those days.
I've graduated high school and you weren't here today.
Because you don't care about anyone except you, these days.
You tried to ruin our lives but here's what you didn't know
Yeah we're still doin' okay today.
Sometimes I sit here and wonder about you
But not today, no not today.
I'm grown up now, dad, where were you that day?
I fell in love and you didn't even get to come that day.
I was walkin' down the aisle with the man who replaced you.
Cause you weren't there all those days.
Lookin' back now dad, if you were there all those days
I wouldn't be the woman I have become today
You taught me a lesson, dad, that I never thought was possible.
You live for who are and you make of what comes your way
Thanks for not bein' there those days.
