I never thought she'd leave the kids with daddy
I'm so surprised to realize she would
The night she left the family home
I sat and cried alone
And I would find her
And love her if I could

It's true, my drinking days became disaster
And all her friends said we should end, for sure
When I got home late one night
I knew it wasn't right
But I would find her
And love her if I could

I don't know where to look
I do it by the book
The laundry's in a pile
I ain't got timе to smile
I'm sorry for what I've done
You can't plеase everyone
I never thought she'd leave the kids with daddy

I don't know where to look
Everything she took
Is gone many a mile
She won't come back for awhile
I'm sorry for what I've done
You pay for having fun
(I blame Kelly Clarkson)
I never thought she'd leave the kids with daddy
She broke my heart and now I start to cry
It's been a long and lonely year
To live without her here
I would find her
And love her
If I could
Oh my
