Lyrics

[Intro]
Father, father, tell me where have you been?
[Verse 1]
It's been hell not having you here
I've been missing you so bad
And you don't seem to care
When I go to sleep at night, you're not there
When I go to sleep at night, do you care?
[PreChorus]
Do you even miss us?
Your bottle's your mistress
I need to know, I need to know
[Chorus]
Why are you walking away?
Was it something I did? Did I make a mistake?
'Cause I'm trying to deal with the pain
I don't understand this, is this how it ends?
[Refrain]
I will try to understand
Father, father, father
[Verse 2]
Father, father, tell me where are you now?
It's been hell not having you
Last thing I heard, you were fed up
You're skipping town with no note telling where
When I go to sleep at night, you're not there
When I go to sleep at night, do you care?
[PreChorus]
I need to know, I need to know
[Chorus]
Why are you walking away?
Was it something I did? Did I make a mistake?
'Cause I'm trying to deal with the pain
I don't understand this, is this how it ends?
Why are you running away?
I don't understand this, is this how it ends?
Why are you running away?
Tell me please, tell me please, I need to know
[Refrain]
Is this what you call a family?
Is this what you call a family?
Is this what you call a family?
Is this what you call a family?
[Bridge]
It's been seven years wishing that you'd drop a line
Is this what you call a family? Is this what you call a family?
But I carry the thought along with you in my mind
Is this what you call a family?
Is this what you call a family?
Family!
[Chorus]
Why are you walking away?
Was it something I did? Did I make a mistake?
'Cause I'm trying to deal with the pain
I don't understand this, is this how it ends?
Why are you running away?
I don't understand this, is this how it ends?
Why are you running away?
Tell me please, tell me please, I need to know
[Refrain]
Is this what you call a family?
Is this what you call a family?
Is this what you call a family?
Is this what you call a family?
