[Verse 1]
Please forgive the times I can't be there
To pick you up from school
I wish I could've seen you walk that stage
On your graduation day
[Pre-Chorus]
Mama knows how much I really care
One day you'll see how much I really care
Every time I leave you with a kiss goodbye
You say "bye bye Daddy", It makes me want to cry
[Chorus]
I'm always away
I'm away
Missing you today is hard enough
I don't want to miss you growing up
I'm away
I"m always away
[Verse 2]
When this song takes me around the world
I promise to bring you along
Paris at night, the northern lights
Me, your Mom, and you
[Pre-Chorus]
Mama knows how much I really care
One day you'll see how much I really care
Whoa, every time I leave you with a kiss goodbye
You say "bye bye Daddy", it makes me want to cry
[Chorus]
I'm always away
I'm away
Missing you today is hard enough
I don't want to miss you growing up
I'm away
[Coda]
I'm always away
I'm away
Away
I'll be home real soon
