Lyrics
Hey Dad
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hey Dad where have you been for so long?
Why won't you look at me?
Is there something wrong?
Do you remember me, the son that you conceived?
Why won't you look at me?
The son that you deceived.
Oh God, what did I do to deserve this?
A man I never knew.
A man I cannot miss.
How can we start all over when we never began?
How can you be a father,
When you're not even a man?
I gave you many chances, many that you took.
Now I stand before you,
You won't even look.
So then came kids of my own.
I was there for them.
I am the man you couldn't be. (I didn't learn from him.)
Where is he now I don't even know at all.
I don't even remember,
The last time he called.
