Every time I see your face
I open my eyes and you’re gone again
And anytime I hear your name
I wanna just cry, but instead I say
That I’m fine and I’m alright
With you never coming home
When I’m all alone

I’m just Sam, little boy Sam
Waiting at the door till you bring yourself back
And I’m not mad and I understand
But I’m just Sam, little boy Sam
Thinking ’bout the hole that’s in the person I am
No, I’m not mad
I’m just a fully grown man that needs his dad

People tell me that I look like you
That I have your smile and laugh the way you do
Oh, so when I’m really, really missing you
I find a mirror and try to see me the way they do
Oh, I’m fine and I’m alright
I’m just in a black, black hole
I guess now you know

That I’m just Sam, little boy Sam
Waiting at the door till you bring yourself back
No, I’m not mad and I understand
But I’m just Sam, little boy Sam
Thinking ’bout the hole that’s in the person I am
No, I’m not mad
I’m just a fully grown man that needs his dad

Oh, I need my dad
Mm, oh
Just need my dad
Oh, I need my dad
Will someone bring him back?

‘Cause I’m just Sam, little boy Sam
Waiting in the drive till my daddy comes back
No, I’m not mad and I understand
Though I’m just Sam, little boy Sam
Thinking ’bout the hole that’s in the person I am
No, I’m not mad
I’m just a fully grown man that needs his dad
