Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I used to wait by the window light
Counting cars every night
Mom would say you’re working late
But I could feel something wasn’t right
Your chair stayed empty at the table
Your voice became a fading sound
I learned to blow my candles out
While wishing you were still around
[Pre-Chorus]
Every birthday, every year
I whispered words you couldn’t hear
[Chorus]
Where are you, Dad?
Do you think of me at all?
Did you forget the way I laughed
When I was small?
I’m growing up without your hand
Trying hard to understand
Why you left and never came back
Where are you, Dad?
[Verse 2]
I watched the fathers at the park
Teaching daughters how to ride
I smiled like it didn’t hurt
While something broke inside
School plays, empty seat again
I searched the crowd from stage lights’ glow
Clapping hands that weren’t yours
Is something I’ll always know
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep pretending I’m okay
But questions never fade away
[Chorus]
Where are you, Dad?
Do you think of me at all?
Did you forget the way I laughed
When I was small?
I’m growing up without your hand
Trying hard to understand
Why you left and never came back
Where are you, Dad?
[Verse 3]
I don’t need fairy tales tonight
I just want honesty
Was I not enough to stay?
Was it ever about me?
I still keep your last old photo
Hidden in my drawer at home
Even after all these years
I hate feeling so alone
[Pre-Chorus]
If you ever hear this song
Please know I waited all along
[Chorus]
Where are you, Dad?
Do you think of me at all?
Did you forget the way I laughed
When I was small?
I’m growing up without your hand
Trying hard to understand
Why you left and never came back
Where are you, Dad?
