  • Had a fight with my daughter
    She flew off in a rage
    Third time this week
    Don't tell me it's the age

    Don't know how I lost her
    I only know that it's a shame
    Ever since her daddy left
    The girl ain't been the same

    All at once I hear your voice
    And time just slips away
    Nothing they could say can hold me here

    Take me where I only feel
    The wind across my face
    Let me know there's someplace left for me
    Waiting there for me

    Ah, who am I kiddin'
    I should have known he'd never leave
    The time we spend together
    Is harder than the time between

    You wouldn't think it could hurt so
    To see 'em out the other day
    If that's what he calls leavin'
    I guess I threw it all away

    All at once I hear your voice
    And time just slips away
    Nothing they could say can hold me here

    Take me where I only feel
    The wind across my face
    Let me know there's someplace left for me
    Waiting just for me

    They say women, we're the stronger
    Somehow we always make it through
    Hell, that ain't what I feel right now
    I don't even think it's true

    To me there's lots more broken
    Than anyone can really see
    Why the angels turn their backs on some
    It's a mystery to me

    All at once I hear your voice
    And time just slips away
    Nothing they could say can hold me here

    Take me where I only feel
    The wind across my face
    Let me know there's someplace left for me
