It never seems to hurt so bad when you say goodbye,
which is only one reason for why I cry,
If anyone could know just where I’m coming from,
Maybe my view on life wouldn’t be so numb,

It wasn’t too long ago that you were here,
And sometimes you feel close, like you’re so near,
Maybe there’s no one who could understand,
God why would this happen to me, I’m just a man,

Tell me can you feel my pain,
I don’t want to hurt again,
Can you tell me what was my sin,
For life to happen again,

If I could take back the words I said before,
Maybe the pain would go away, fly out the door,
Dad if you see me now I hope you’re proud,
And if you can hear me Dad I love you now,

And I’m not made for what’s been done,
I forgive you for leaving your son,
I’m still learning to let go,
Dad I still miss you,
I miss you so,

It never seems to hurt so bad when you say goodbye,
So Jesus please help me just to sleep tonight
