Bb   G   F  Eb

Bb             G                F
Only two more days, until your birthday
Eb
Yesterday was mine
You'll be turning five
I know what it's like, growing up without your father in your life


G        F       Bb        Eb
So I pretend, I'm doing all I can
G     F               Eb  
And I hope someday you'll find it in your heart
G       F
To understand
Bb       Eb
Why I'm not around
G                        F             Eb
And forgive me for not being in your life

Bb   
I remember waiting
For you to come
G
Remember waiting
For you to call
       F                        Eb         
Remember waiting there to find nothing at all
I remember waiting
For you to come
Remember waiting
For you to call
Waiting there to find nothing at all

Bb      G
Maybe someday
                 F
you really get to know me
          Eb
not just the letters read to you
I pray I get the chance
To make it up to you
We got a lot of catching up to do
