{Verse} 
 
Only two more days, until your birthday 
Yesterday was mine 
You'll be turning five 
I know what it's like, growing up without your father in your life 
So I pretend, I'm doing all I can 
And I hope someday you'll find it in your heart

To understand 
Why I'm not around 
And forgive me for not being in your life

{Chorus} 
 
I remember waiting 
For you to come 
Remember waiting 
For you to call 
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 
 
{Solo/Intro} 
 
{Verse} 
 
maybe someday 
you really get to know me 
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

Waiting there to find nothing at all
