📜 Lyrics
So, here we go again
And you know well that it has been
Six years since you hurt me
Now you're crying on the phone
Though it was you who let me down
You've never been around
Where were you when I needed you the most?
I could have used a father real close
But it's a different life that you chose
I cannot tell why I miss you so
When you are a stranger I don't really know
Where's your loving soul from all those years ago?
Your words don't match your actions
You've never heard of self-refection
You won't be able to fill in
But I was wondering
Is this what fathers do, picking up their kids from school?
Is this what fathers do at the soccer game, being there for you?
Is this what fathers do, saying yes when mom says no?
I guess I'll never know
I guess I'll never know
Don't you remember the letters I was getting from your lawyer?
Final destroyer of a relationship between a girl and her father, oh yeah
But never mind, I am fine with a mother who has been there, and she took care
You are the reason I used to see her crying
Now, don't you feel ashamed of the harm and pain?
Your words don't match your actions
You've never heard of self-refection
You won't be able to fill in
But I was wondering
Is this what fathers do, picking up their kids from school?
Is this what fathers do at the soccer game, being there for you?
Is this what fathers do, saying yes when mom says no?
I guess I'll never know
I guess I'll never know
I guess I'll never know what fathers do, what fathers do
I guess I'll never know
You'll never know what you did to me
You'll never know what your Dad told me
I'll never know what fathers do, yeah-yeah
Da-ra-ra-ra-ra
And you know well that it has been
Six years since you hurt me
Now you're crying on the phone
Though it was you who let me down
You've never been around
Where were you when I needed you the most?
I could have used a father real close
But it's a different life that you chose
I cannot tell why I miss you so
When you are a stranger I don't really know
Where's your loving soul from all those years ago?
Your words don't match your actions
You've never heard of self-refection
You won't be able to fill in
But I was wondering
Is this what fathers do, picking up their kids from school?
Is this what fathers do at the soccer game, being there for you?
Is this what fathers do, saying yes when mom says no?

I guess I'll never know
Don't you remember the letters I was getting from your lawyer?

I guess I'll never know what fathers do, what fathers do
I guess I'll never know
You'll never know what you did to me
You'll never know what your Dad told me
I'll never know what fathers do, yeah-yeah
Da-ra-ra-ra-ra
