Lyrics

It's cold tonight
I heard her say
She was staring out the window
As I came home late
She tried to smile
But looked away
Oh I could see the tears were running
Down her face
She said..
You go to work
You pay the bills
I stay at home
And I make the meals

But you don't even know who I am anymore
You're a million miles away
Though I see you every day
And I've been waiting right here
Oh for all these years
And sometimes I get so lonely
I need to know you love me
But do you even know me anymore?

I turned around
To see my son
Oh, I remember his first birthday
Now he's twenty-one
I missed his life
I missed it all
Oh, to him I was a man
Just living down the hall
He said... I learned to live
Without you dad
But I'd give it all
Just to have you back

But you don't even know who I am anymore
I used to wait at all my games
But still you never came
And I've been waiting right here
Oh for all these years
From the time you said you'd owe me
I've wanted you to show me
But you don't even know me anymore?

I've watched my days
Turn into years
And now I'm wondering how I wound up here
I dreamed my dreams
I made my plans
But all I've built here is an empty man

And I don't even know who I am anymore
Oh, god I'm praying through the tears
Let me make up for these years
Oh, have I waited too long?
Can I start again
To be the man you've wanted of me
I'm begging you to show me
But do you even know me anymore?
