A father's failure a long ago would never be forgot.   Their differences would continue to drive them apart.   The mother could not forgive him the father acted unrepentant. It wasn't long before they'd give in and go their separate ways.      The child found himself in the midst of it all he didn't know on whom to    call.      And all the while he's forced to keep forcing a smile   but deep inside his agony can't be denied         When the paperwork was finished he knew it was through   Never more would mom and dad exchange their "I love you's"   all he hoped for was a day when he would wake up from this bad dream   And his parents would both love each other once again.      The child found himself in the midst of it all he didn't know on whom to    call.      And all the while he's forced to keep forcing a smile   but deep inside his agony can't be denied      He said to them, please do not go. I won't survive, my youth alone, I need    a mom, I need a dad, I need a family, a family, if not for him, then for    your child, if not for her, then for your son. His pain won't leave, won't    be erased, can't be undone.      And all the while he's forced to keep forcing a smile   but deep inside his agony can't be denied
