4ft Fingers Only Time Will Tell
So he thought he did it alright
And under control of his life
He never wanted things to end quite the way they did
A young wife at home and a new born kid
Never wanted it
Be a father not like this
Only time will tell who's the better man
Never wanted it
Be a father the way he is
Lonely time, and only time will tell
For all the things he's said and done
Not a word he spoke was ever in vain
He would have never packed up and gone
Responsibilities calling out his name
Works two jobs minimum wage
His decision he had to make today
But he'll be ok with it all
Just a little more time and he'll be fine
Never wanted it
Be a father not like this
Only time will tell who's the one that's won
He never wanted it
Be a father not like this
It's a lonely, but only time will tell.
