Beth Waters - Dad lyrics

rate me

and I want to forget

and I want to forgive you

to forgive you

well I was born among it

and I watched it die

but my silent cry

couldn’t break through their wall

they couldn’t hear my call

I asked him and he told me

that he didn’t really love me

and I cried that night

and I cried that night

and he never tucks me in anymore

I miss the smelled when we’d

when we’d watch the football games

and he’d curse the player’s names

he’d ask me if I loved him

and I said that I did

I always looked up to him

and we laughed all night

we laughed all night

but he never tucks me in anymore

the last time I talked to him

I was just fourteen

so grown up it seemed

but I needed him

he told me that he’d find himself

another family to love

and I asked him if he loved me

but he didn’t understand

he didn’t understand

and he never tucks me in anymore

and I want to forget

and I want to forgive you

to forgive you

and I will

cause I did it without you

you’d be so proud of me

if you could be

and I still love you

but I’ve let go now

but I’ve let go now

and I’m at peace and I hope

you are too

you are too
