you said you'd come back.
and yet there you are so far away.
your presence is the thing life lacks.
now, my blue skies have turned gray.
you said you'd be here.
for the important things in my life.
but you continue to disappear,
and leave your daughter and wife.
you said it won't take long,
and yet you've been gone for four years.
I promised you that I'd be strong,
but no more can I hold back the tears.
you said it's not gonna be a big deal,
and yet we're here missing you like crazy.
why can't you imagine how we feel?
is it all that hazy?
