Since you've been gone, Dad
Since you’ve been gone
Life just hasn’t been the same
Days turned into weeks
Weeks turned into months
Since you’ve been gone
I’ve learned to move on
in life
Making it to high school
Since you’ve been gone
I’ve learned to live without you
through the break-ups
and bad days
Since you’ve been gone
I fell in love
with boy
but you weren’t there to
protect me
Since you’ve been gone
I’ve changed a lot
I’ve learned to forgive and forget
Since you’ve been gone
I’ve graduated high school
And got accepted into college
So here I am now
18 years old and living life
I thought I needed you
but in reality
I didn’t
