Words I'll Never Hear

you never told me you were proud

you kept it silent never loud

I made my choices just for you

hoping one day you would come through

I tried so hard to earn your grace

but all I met was cold embrace

all I wanted was to hear

those simple words like morning sun

I'm so proud of you my son

now you're gone and dreams unclear

I painted pictures in my mind

of all the love I could not find

you were hard but now I know

father I must let you go

the empty space where love should stay

is all that's left to fade away

all I wanted was to hear

those simple words like morning sun

I'm so proud of you my son

now you're gone and dreams unclear
