Where did you go

I've made so many mistakes I know, I can't fix
and I'm stuck in a dead end job, I can't quit
I haven't forgotten all the promises, I made
if I had found a way to keep them, would you've stayed
I miss my family so much, I feel lost
And I'd do anything to get you back, no matter the cost
I read your note over and over, and I don't see
what did I ever do, to make you leave me
Spending my nights, crying my eyes out
I wake from my dreams, just to shout

Where did you go
I miss you so
I wish I knew what I've done
And why you're gone
Call me please
So I can breathe
My house is not a home
If I'm all alone
Where did you go

I hear children's voices, all the time
And I always double check, to make sure they're not mine
If you don't want to talk okay, its your choice
but please call, just so I can hear my little girl's voice
The kids down the street come to see, if she can play
I cry each time, I have to turn them away
How's my son, has he learned how to crawl
or is he still on all fours, lurching forward just to fall
What will you tell our babies, when they ask
where is our daddy, and why did we have to leave so fast

Why did we go
We miss him so
What could he have done
That we must be gone
Call him please
So we can see
That we wont be alone
When we get home
Why did we go

Friends are starting to ask, if I'm okay
I just tell them I'm living, day by day
Every morning I wake up, hoping the day will be new
but when I go check the bed, there is no you
See I can't sleep in there, with you not here
all I do is lay there, and cry a river of tears
That fall like the rain, the night that you left
that ensure in there, I'll never get rest
I know life is uncertain, and it kills me inside
to know that you wont, be by my side

Where did you go
I need you so
I can't be happy
With you not near me
The doors stay unlocked
While I watch the clock
'Cause I can't spend forever, all alone
Please come back home
Where did you go

The police drove up, they found your car
they asked me if I'd like to come, its not far
I told them they're wrong, it can't be you
they brought me your ring, to show me it's true
No one could bare to speak, so I said I'd try
my babies would be proud, I did not cry
With not a dry eye left in the room
I told each casket be patient, I'll see you soon

Why did they go
God I miss them so
Tell them be strong
I wont be long
I wont be sad
'Cause I'm so glad
I wont be alone
When I come home
Why did they go
