Looking through these windows of time
Watching memories pass by in my mind
There's always one face I seem to see
Someone I wanted to be completely
Where were you when I needed you most
Looked for a lifetime always chasing a ghost
All I wanted was a piece of your time
Money and presents just don't make it fine
And now the winds of time have taken you away
And left an empty space still so much to say
All I have of you are pictures in my mind
And a million questions with no answers I can find
Ain't it funny how life plays over again
My jobs taking all the hours god sends
Haven't seen my son in a week or more
We're like two strangers passing through the same door
But its not too late I still have time
Before I lose touch with my own bloodline
I cant stand the thought of him feeling like me
Don't wanna be the most familiar stranger he's seen
