When I Go To See My Son |
When I go to see my son |
I get there early Friday night |
It’s after the winter sun goes down |
His mother turns on the front porch light |
She always meets me at the door |
She knows she’s still the only one |
But she’s a million miles away now |
When I go to see my son |
When I go to see my son |
I look for hope where there is none |
I see the past, I see the future |
When I go to see my son |
When I go to see my son |
We might take in a hockey game |
We tell ourselves we’re having fun |
But in the end, it’s not the same |
I hear him cry out in the night |
I wonder what I might have done |
And I don’t get to sleep for hours |
When I go to see my son |
When I go to see my son |
I look for hope where there is none |
I see the past, I see the future |
When I go to see my son |
I see he has his mother’s eyes |
I hear her voice whenever he laughs |
He has her perfect nose |
The nose is plain to see |
I see he has her perfect chin |
He has his mother’s will to win |
I see my son will never be |
The least like me |
When I bring my son back home |
We never talk much in the car |
And by the time I think of something |
We turn the corner, there we are |
His mother meets us at the door |
She knows she’s still the only one |
But I can see she’s gone forever |
When I go to see my son |
When I go to see my son |
I look for hope where there is none |
I see the past, I see the future |
When I go to see my son |
When I go to see my son |
I look for hope and there is none |
I see the past, I see the future |
When I go to see my son |
