I would give anything just to see you now I had so much to tell wish i did somehow I cried and cried the day you closed your eyes Memories forever lost from all the things that we didn't say now All i'm asking is for you to understand What i believed was always wrong I knew the father but i wish i knew the man Oh i've waited way too long to say these words to you Words that we never spoke but we felt inside Silence that was never broke though i should have tried And now i'm reaching out my hand to you to the other side now If you could see me today You'd be so proud of me I know the right words to say I'll follow you forever All i'm asking is for you to understand What i believed was always wrong So please forgive me and i'll be a better man Ooh i've waited way too long to say these words to you
