when I was little my dad always played this song in the car. it was one of his favorites. he explained what the song meant and everything to me, and I told him it was sad when I was just a little girl. saying it's sad he doesn't have time to see his son and now his son doesn't have time to see him.

I remembering being a little girl and always wanting to be like my dad. I'd always want him to take me on his hunting trips to New Mexico and stuff but I couldn't because I was like 5-6 lol. I'd always help him in the yard, and he showed me garden snakes and I'd play with them carefully. I liked them because my dad did. still do. they're cute. my dad would be hammering/fixing stuff and I'd ask if I could have some nails too to help him at age 5-6 lmao. he'd let me have a little piece of wood with nails and a hammer and show me how. but he was normally away at work. we lived in Gary IN, which was the murder capital of the US when I was born in 93- well it was titled in 94 as the murder capital I believe but same difference bc I was born in November. anyways he worked multiple jobs so we could move out of Gary. he was never home. and when he was home he was tired of course, so I didn't get to spend much time with him.

this song came on in the car today, and it made me cry... I have 3 jobs, and I just traveled to San Jose and was gone Thursday-Monday. when I got home Monday, I said hi to my dad and was cheerful and I asked if he wanted money for bills because I just got paid. he didn't say anything for awhile then said "I'd like to see you once in awhile." I've been helping my parents with bills and stuff and going to school full time, and when he said this I felt his pain and sadness. he's an aqua so he's not off the rails with emotions, but I knew what he was saying. when this song came on today, I just cried because we used to listen to this when I was little and say it was sad, and now I am never home myself and my parents miss me. it broke my heart to see it come to life.
