[Verse]
She came home just won the game
Long time struggle she fulfilled her dream
All she wanted was to make you proud
You weren t there
Had his birthday a few days ago
He got some presents, a big party too
And there were congratulation cards
As it used to be for
Not ever one from you
[Chorus]
You weren t there
Distant far away
it s like this every day
I see it in their heads
Wonder if you ll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again
[Verse]
She cut herself on that piece of paper
It didn t hurt but she saw the blood
She could need that embrace
You weren t there
Did he have to cry louder?
Would that make you hear him?
You see his heart was broken
For the first time
[Chorus]
You weren t there
Distant far away
it s like this every day
I see it in their heads
Wonder if you ll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again
[Bridge]
You cannot turn back time
I wish that to come true
They re making up these stories about you
[Chorus]
You weren t there
Distant far away
It s like this every day
I see it in their heads
Wonder if you ll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again
Miss you once again...
