Lyrics
Verse 1
I grew up thinking I knew all the answers
The kids would live the dreams that passed me by
The Happy Home, like in the movies
But now I see the promise was a lie.
Chorus
My ex and I worked out the visitations
It didn't hit me 'til she closed the door
The words I overheard her say, were words I'd heard before
"... and your Daddy doesn't live here, any more"
Verse 2
The very thing I vowed would never happen
The absent hat, the boots, the empty chair
But until I heard those words, guess I'd forgotten
Just how it felt when Daddy wasn't there.
Chorus
My ex and I worked out the visitations
It didn't hit me 'til she closed the door
The words I overheard her say, were words I'd heard before
"... and your Daddy doesn't live here, any more"
'Daddy doesn't live here, any more'
