[00:08.38]Mmmmmm
[00:19.52]I was seventeen slamming doors
[00:26.70]Shouting things I can't ignore
[00:33.49]Said I don't need you anymore
[00:37.53]Then I walked right out that door
[00:44.63]Mama crying in the light
[00:51.60]Tears falling through the night
[00:58.79]Dad is standing cold and still
[01:06.03]Never said what he might feel
[01:13.19]I thought silence meant you didn't care
[01:20.55]Didn't know your love was there
[01:26.81]I watched headlights fade away
[01:34.55]Prayed you'd make it through the day
[01:41.61]Held my heart but couldn't chase
[01:45.62]Saw the hurt upon your face
[01:52.75]Left a light on every night
[01:56.36]Hoping you would find what's right
[01:59.89]Love don't leave when you walk out
[02:03.30]It just learns to live with doubt
[02:10.41]I stood quiet at the door
[02:14.10]Felt a weight I can't ignore
[02:17.61]A man won't beg his son to stay
[02:21.17]But I pray you'd find your way
[02:28.31]So I let you face the world
[02:31.93]Hide the pain I never showed
[02:35.49]Left that front door open wide
[02:39.24]Hoping you'd come back inside
[02:45.60]I thought I had to prove I was stronger
[02:49.67]You were just afraid to fall
[02:53.15]I was trying to make you ready
[02:58.59]We were hurting in one hole
[03:02.38]But we never let it show
[03:05.85]I was running from your love
[03:09.50]You were holding me below
[03:13.01]Through the silence through the pride
[03:16.65]Through the tears we kept inside
[03:20.11]I walked out I walked away
[03:23.56]But you never left my side
[03:33.31]You never left
[03:36.48]You never left my side
[03:46.95]Years went rolling like the wind
[03:50.88]Different roads I tried to win
[03:54.37]Every night I felt so strong
[03:58.02]Every morning felt so wrong
[04:05.04]Now I see you in my face
[04:08.56]In the lines I can't erase
[04:12.29]Everything I tried to lose
[04:15.80]Was the thing that pulled me through
[04:19.41]I still set your place at night
[04:23.01]Even when you're out of sight
[04:26.32]Some kind of love don't fade away
[04:29.72]It just waits another day
[04:33.87]I knew life would bring you back
[04:37.38]Through the pain and through the cracks
[04:41.03]Not through words I couldn't say
[04:44.64]But through all that make you stay
[04:52.60]If I could go back to that night
[04:58.06]I wouldn't walk out I wouldn't fight
[05:00.96]You don't have to go back
[05:04.19]You made it home
[05:06.19]But I never said it
[05:09.21]I love you mom I love you dad
[05:15.95]We always do
[05:44.29]We were hurt and we were healing
[05:47.89]In the spaces in between
[05:51.56]Every word we never said still became everything
[05:58.67]Through the distance through the years
[06:02.23]Through the unspoken fears
[06:05.83]I was never truly lost
[06:09.28]You were with me all those years
[06:13.01]Now I feel you in my soul in every step
[06:21.71]I finally know I'm your son I'm your son
[06:28.15]And I never walked alone
[06:42.82]We were always there
[06:46.15]Always I know I know
