Reaching out for you
You know that I am reaching out for you
So won’t you come and save me
From the pain I feel inside
Mom, you know I miss you
Mom, you know I miss your smile
Wish that I could say that
Since you’ve been gone we’re doing fine
To tell you the truth it’s been so hard
Tryina’ get through but I don’t get far
I know he’s good at hiding it
But I can tell dad feels the same
And since you’ve been gone a lot has changed
School getting harder and dad’s acting strange
And since you’ve been gone I can’t compete
Scott’s even stronger while I take a seat
But one thing I know about myself
Is I’m getting smarter than everyone else
So one day I’ll be able to say
It’s thanks to you that I’m this way
I’d tell you about my life so far
But I don’t think you’d believe me
It’s kinda got crazy and maybe
I can deal with it on my own
But sometimes in the dead of night
There are times when I can’t see the light
And I’d wish you were there to guide the way
Cuz you always knew just what to say
And since you’ve been gone a lot has changed
School getting harder and dad’s acting strange
And since you’ve been gone I can’t compete
Scott’s even stronger while I take a seat
But one thing I know about myself
Is I’m getting smarter than everyone else
So one day I’ll be able to say
It’s thanks to you that I’m this way
I know I miss you I know it hurts
But at least I know it can’t get worse
And finally I’m unafraid
Cuz your memory won’t fade
And since you’ve been gone a lot has changed
School getting harder and dad’s acting strange
And since you’ve been gone I can’t compete
Scott’s even stronger while I take a seat
But one thing I know about myself
Is I’m getting smarter than everyone else
So one day I’ll be able to say
It’s thanks to you that I’m this way
