Well excuse me 

I don't mean to complain 

But there's something I've just gotta say 

Something I just can't get off my brain 

I need to tell you 

My heart breaks everyday 

As I think of how it used to be 

And you tell me it can never be the same 

I've got to give myself some change 

No matter what we do or say 

Love won't go away 



This song goes out to my prodigal dad 

When you left it hurt me more than words can say 

You were the best friend that a boy ever had 

Do you really think it's best you went away? 

Prodigal dad 



The day you left 

I felt so all alone 

Man I felt just like an orphan 

Then my Father came and held me like a son 

And I looked at all I had 

Where there used to be a dad 

There's so much more than a dad 



And maybe 

Maybe you'll hear me out 

And see I'm learning what God's mercy's all about 

And my love 

Is deeper than the pain 

And I'll forgive you everyday 

Because love never goes 

Away
