Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ah, baby
Look how big you grown
Been a long time
Since I've been back home
I'm sorry that
I wasn't there to ever help you out
Now I've come back to try
To see if I could ever make it right
[Instrumental]
"Oh, Daddy
Oh, where were you?
When I needed new shoes
Someone to walk me to school"
That's when she said
"I never wanna see your face again"
That's what she said to me
"Don't let me catch you 'round these ends again"
[Refrain]
That's when it hit me, I can tell you
Though I deserved every word
That was a pain I won't get over
To know that I'd hurt her so
[Instrumental]
You see, sometimes
You can leave it too long
And you can't come around
To what you made so wrong
You never had
The time before, so why would you need more?
That's when she said to me
"I never wanna see you 'round here no more"
[Refrain]
All of my life's been an illusion
In and out and getting high
Committed a pain she can't get over
I can feel it when I looked in her eyes
[Instrumental]
That's what she said to me
Oh, that's what she said to me
