|
I got a day without nothing to do |
|
And a "do not disturb" on my door |
|
I sorta looked for some mess that she'd made |
|
Or her sweet little socks on the floor |
|
But all that she left here was too many rooms |
|
And just enough silence to break |
|
And i can't look at her picture right now |
|
Time's about all i can take. |
|
Last night i sewed up her toys that were torn |
|
And packed her suitcase again |
|
She looked so sweet as she lay there asleep |
|
Smiling and holding my hand |
|
We didn't talk all the way to the plane |
|
But she's too big now to cry |
|
Then when i kissed her, she held me so tight |
|
I couldn't tell her goodbye. |
|
Chorus: |
|
She said, "i wish that we lived together again |
|
It gets so lonesome apart |
|
I'm missing somebody all of the time |
|
Daddy, it's breaking my heart" |
|
It's not so bad out here living alone |
|
Comfort's a stranger away |
|
And there's a freedom you find on your own |
|
That's nearly worth what you pay |
|
It's just a shame she still wants us to be |
|
All that we seemed to before |
|
But we can't blame her for making believe |
|
Something we don't anymore. |
|
Chorus: |
|
She said, "i wish that we lived together again |
|
It gets so lonesome apart |
|
I'm missing somebody all of the time |
|
Daddy, it's breaking my heart" |
