I only got you in my storiesAnd you know I tell them rightRemember you and I, when I'm awake at nightSo give it up for fallen gloryI never got to say goodbyeI wish I could ask for just a bit more timeEvery step I take, you used to lead the wayNow I'm terrified to face it on my ownYou're not thereTo celebrate the man that you madeYou're not thereTo share in my success and mistakesIs it fair? You'll never know the person I'll beYou're not thereWith meThough I know that you're not thereI still write you all these songsIt's like, you still got the right to know what's going onAs I struggle to remember how you used to look and soundSometimes I still think I can spot you in the crowdEvery step I take, you used to lead the wayNow I'm terrified to face it on my ownYou're not thereTo celebrate the man that you madeYou're not thereTo share in my my success and mistakesIs it fair? You'll never know the person I'll beYou're not thereWith meTime can heal your wounds ifYou're strong and standing tallI've been doing all of that, it didn't help at allThey say you'll grow older, and it'll get better stillYes, I will, but no it won'tThey don't get it, 'Cause you're not thereTo celebrate the man that you madeYou're not thereTo share in my my success and mistakesIs it fair? You'll never know the person I'll beYou're not thereWith me
