Away

She was a daddy's girl in every possible way
Like a shadow even on a cloudy day
But mommy and daddy just couldn't get along
They went their separate ways
Then daddy was gone

She don't call him daddy anymore
The tears have dried the book is closed Her heart has shut the door
Flesh and blood it is the same
But pride gets in the way
So they live their lives away

Mommy met another and took a different name
Time passed by
Daddy missed the joys and pains
Graduation came and went invitation never sent
The wedding came she never called his name

She don't call him daddy anymore
The tears have dried the book is closed Her heart has shut the door
Flesh and blood it is the same
But pride gets in the way
So they live their lives away

Pickles and ice cream he never saw the glow
Tiny hands in pink in tiny little bows
Christmas and birthdays he never got a call
The miles between just like a wall

They don't call him grandpa at all
They've never seen his face or the way he walks and talks Flesh and blood it is the same but pride gets in the way So they live their lives away
So they live their lives away
