Dad Call Me

It wasn't all that long ago
that you went away
yet still I sit and wait by the phone 
every single day

I know that I should call you
I also know I won't
I'll wait for you to call me
even if you don't

dad can you hear me
I need to talk to you
I know that you are far away
but I hope you want to to

I know you said I could call you 
but I don't think I should
I never know if you're with her 
and I know you'd call me if you could

If you call this weekend
I promise I'l talk too
but realy all that's up with me 
is that I really miss you
