As a child I missed a lot of love I never had. And daddy he was distant never there to hold my hand. Never bought the things he'd always promise to give me. Mother made a point of always watching over me. Days would go by and we would never see his face. In my mind I'd wonder does he have another place?. If and when he'd come in he would always be upset. All the kids were scared his looks would always be a threat. . Chorus:. Now that you are older and you begin to see. Family's important to be there if you need. Father never taught us these things mom said to me. Now the table's turned so tell me you need me. . Daddy daddy dearest what is it you want from me. I won't turn my back on you the way you did with me. Now you're trying to give I'm always reaching out to grab. I'll give you what i can but i can't give what i don't have. . Mother lends a shoulder to cry on if you need. But are you there for mother when she needs your company?. Father never taught us these things mom said to me. Now the table's turned so tell me you need me. Say you need me. . If you realize we need each other. We would be a closer family. I need you yeah I need you and you know that. Say you need me. . Repeat Chorus. . Say you need me. Just you wait. You'll need me.
