[Verse] Morning sun peeks in through the willow trees, His old hands shake as he stirs his tea. Pictures framed of kids who moved away, Now the sand runs faster in his hourglass days. [Verse 2] He sits by the fire, listens to the wind, Hopes to hear the laughter from where it’s been. In the quiet house, rooms echo cold, Memories of love in stories told. [Chorus] Empty porch swing sways with the breeze, Loneliness echoed in the creak of the trees. Prayers sent up for a phone call or a sign, Just a dad with endless time. [Verse 3] Neighbors pass by, he waves and smiles, But his heart breaks just a little while. For those little feet that used to run, All that's left, a setting sun. [Verse 4] Evenings fall with the crickets' song, He whispers their names, but they’re long gone. Photographs, letters, all he can hold, In his heart, he’s still daddy, though years have grown old. [Chorus] Empty porch swing sways with the breeze, Loneliness echoed in the creak of the trees. Prayers sent up for a phone call or a sign, Just a dad with endless time.
