I've been away a little while
And it don't make sense to me
Haven't seen you in a little while
And I get a bit lonely

But do you ever wonder
Where I went?
Do you ever leave the lights on
At 7:30 when I would go to bed?
Do you ever wonder
Where I've been?
For so long

Mum and Dad
Did you ever search for me?
I swear when they think I'm asleep
I hear you on their TV screens
Keep calling out my name
'Cause it helps me see your face
And if I could let you know
I'd let you know I'm okay

I've been gone a little while
And I miss you dearly
Blue skies, cold nights I saw outside
And I recognize the trees

But do you ever wonder
Where I went?
Do you ever leave the lights on
At 7:30 when I would go to bed?
Do you ever wonder
Where I've been?
For so long

Mum and Dad
Did you ever search for me?
I swear when they think I'm asleep
I hear you on their TV screens
Keep calling out my name
'Cause it helps me see your face
And if I could let you know
I'd let you know I'm okay enough

Maybe if I pray enough
He'll show you where I am
He'll guide your hand
And then you'll turn up
Maybe if I talk too much
Maybe if I run amok
They'll get it in their head
That I'm not theirs
And then they'll give me up

I've been away a little while
It's been a few years I think
And I don't know where you are
But I've changed a bit
Since I was six
