Maia - Dad Is On The Moon Lyrics

I promise I'll be back in just a few months
Promise me you'll never try to take any drugs
You know it's hard up here just give me some more time
Just try your best in school in the meantime
But then the months turned into years
And I quit waiting
A jar on the shelf for my tears
And I kept speculating
Why you would leave your true best friend
Yeah I wish that I was more complete
I wish that I would feel more safe
I wish I didn't have this mental backstreet
I wish I wasn't so afraid
But dad is on the moon
But dad is on the moon
Mom my stomach hurts without no reason
And a lump in my throat every Christmas season
Seems like he's stuck up there
And he doesn't seem to care
Now I see the bigger picture
'Cause I know I'll never hurt as much as I did then
When he swore that he'd be back soon
If only I had known I wouldn't wait
Dad I wish you would have seen it all
I wish that you had seen me grow
I wish we weren't built on memories and phone lines
But you were never there
'Cause you were on the moon
'Cause you were on the moon
'Cause you were on the moon
'Cause you were on the moon
Yeah you were on the moon
Yeah you were on the moon
My dad was on the moon
My dad was on the moon
