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
