lirik lagu nak - love's absence
check
she used to take me to my cousin’s place
way before the sun had come awake
went to work you had to make a way
mama called said she coming late
he had a tour of duty on a ship
saw you off when i was just a kid
crying as his daddy left the dock
many months until we get to talk
i would struggle troubled by my loneliness
my only child and cousins were too old for him
play pretend but couldn’t fake the pain away
no amount of faith could make it fade away
look at them i’m out of place with all my friends
i wanted to be close to mom and dad like them
but i’m home and i’m alone again
it’s hard to see the reason now when you don’t know the end
it hurts but i know that you mean well
you mean well, you mean well
it’s easy to think of my own self
my own self, my own self
n0body’s home but i know that i’m not alone
i’m not alone
i know , i know
sometimes absence means love
philippines to the united states
wouldn’t let the wind decide your fate
you gave it up and left it all behind
cause i know you had me on your mind
you came to give me things you wish you had
and maybe bigger dreams you couldn’t grab
you sacrificed your own so i could live in mine
now this is why you ain’t around at dinner time
now is it right to cry about your absence
now that your little boy is throwing tantrums
well i forget that you bend over backwords
to give me everything i took for granted
we fail to see the bigger picture
i guess entitlement gives a thinner vision
you weren’t always there but now i’m seeing better
you weren’t there cause you love us all forever
it hurts but i know that you mean well
you mean well, you mean well
it’s easy to think of my own self
my own self, my own self
n0body’s home but i know that i’m not alone
i’m not alone
i know, i know
sometimes absence means love
it hurts but i know that you mean well
you mean well, you mean well
it’s easy to think of my own self
my own self, my own self
n0body’s home but i know that i’m not alone
i’m not alone
i know , i know
sometimes absence means love
and i wanna give my kids the same
to chase a destiny, a gift to claim
i want my little boy to have it all
and teach him how to give it back to god
i want my little girl to see her worth
and never find it in another person
i hope they both’ll understand
when daddy goes away, he does it all for them
to all the military kids and night shifters
to overseas workers and the business trippers
