It's cold tonight, I heard her say
She was staring out the window as I came home late
She tried to smile, but looked away
Oh but I could see the tears were running down her face
She said you go to work, you pay the bills
I stay at home and I make the meals

But you don't even know who I am anymore
You're a million miles away though I see you everyday
And I've been waiting right here over all these years
And sometimes I get so lonely; I need to know you love me
But do you even know me anymore

I turned around to see my son
I remember his first birthday now he's twenty-one
I missed his life, I missed it all
Oh to him I was a man just living down the hall
He said I learned to live without you dad
But I'd give it all just to have you back

But you don't even know who I am anymore
I used to wait all my games, but still you never came
And I've been waiting right here over all these years
For the time you said you'd owe me, I wanted you to show me
But do you even know me anymore

I watch my days turn into years
And now I'm wondering how I wound up here
I dreamed my dreams I made my plans
But all I've built here is an empty man

And I don't even know who I am anymore
God I'm praying through the tears, let me make up for these years
So have I waited to long can I start again
To be the man you wanted of me, I'm beggin' you to show me
But do you even know me anymore
