[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
He had his birthday a few days ago
He got some presents, a big party too
And there were congratulation calls
As the years before
Not ever one from you

[Chorus]
You weren't there
Distant far away
It's like this everyday
They see you in their heads
Wonder if you'll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again

[Verse 3]
She cut herself on a piece of paper
It didn't hurt but she saw the blood
She could need that embrace
You weren't there

[Verse 4]
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 everyday
They see you in their heads
Wonder if you'll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again
[Bridge]
Cannot turn back time
A wish yet to come true
They're making up these stories about you

[Chorus]
You weren't there
Distant far away
It's like this everyday
They see you in their heads
Wonder if you'll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again

[Outro]
And miss you once again
