�it�s cold tonight�,
i heard her say.
she was staring out the window as i came home late.
she tried to smile,
but looked away.
oh but i could see the tears were running down her face.
she said �you go to work,
you pay the bills,
i stay at home,
and i make the meals.
But you don�t even know who i am anymore,
you�re a million miles away,
though i see you every day.
and i�ve been waiting right here,
over all these years.
and sometimes i get so lonely,
i need to know you love me,
but do you even know me anymore?�
I turned around,
to see my son.
well i remember his first birthday when i was 21.
i missed his life,
i missed it all,
oh to him i was a man just living down the hall.
he said �i learned to live,
without you dad,
but i�d give it all
just to have you back.
But you don�t even know who i am anymore.
i used to wait at all my games,
but still you never came,
and i�ve been waiting right here,
over all these years.
for the times you said you�d owe me,
i wanted you to show me,
but do you even know me anymore?�
I�ve watched my days,
turn into years,
and now i�m wondering how i wound up here.
i dreamed my dreams,
i made my plans,
but all i�ve built here is an empty man.
And i don�t even know who i am anymore.
god i�m praying through the tears,
let me make up all these years.
oh have i waited too long?
can i start again?
to be the man you�ve wanted of me.
i�m begging you to show me,
but do you even know me anymore?
