"Could you make believe that... that I was your daddy?"

[Verse 1]
My how times have changed
My how life is strange
Things get re-arranged

Now you call my name
But things are not the same
I'll take all the blame

I just have to ask you...

[Chorus 1]
Where were you when I felt the craving
Where were you when I needed saving
Where were you when the light was dying
Where were you when I felt like crying

"...daddy?"
"...daddy?"
"...daddy?"

[Verse 2]
I've got to stay away
On my darkest day
You found no words to say
If what you have in store
Is what you gave before
Then I want no more

I just have to ask you...

[Chorus 2]
Where were you when it was still worth sharing
Where were you when it was still worth caring
Where were you when I was torn and bleeding
Where were you when I was still worth needing

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 3]
Where were you when I went away
Where were you when I died that day
How can you be both here and there
How can you not be anywhere


[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 1]
