It's not a story that I wrote
This is the fate that would unfold
I was not meant to live like this
But then again how could I've known
I saw you many years ago
Since then your face became unkown
From you I did not hear a word
Nor did I feel your love
When I needed you the most
You were not there on any day
My hero was not ever there
On any day, on any day
The years my hero disappeared
They told me that he would show up
I waited, waited for his call
I did not lose my faith in him
Through many empty holidays
Did not remember his own son
A man I finally became
Yet my hero never showed up
When I needed you the most
You were not there on any day
My hero was not ever there
On any day, on any day
My birthdays came and quickly went
My life achievements passed me by
I didn't even hear your voice
Not even a letter or a call
I'm never even in your thoughts
Have you forgotten I'm still here
You didn't even say goodbye
You walked away instead
When I needed you the most
You were not there on any day
My hero was not ever there
On any day, on any day
For my first words where were you?
You were not there
And for my first steps where were you?
You were not there
Throughout my childhood where were you?
You were not there
My entire lifetime where were you?
