Hidden Tears

I can't keep my eyes open The destination is far away My body is broken Stop This is what it says I went home yesterday Now I hit the road It's more difficult when the little man says Dad please don't go Dad please don't go These sunglasses won't hide my tears I have lost so many years I see the road more than I see my family This is what I chose to be A picture with my children and my wife This is how I see them Talking on the telephone This is how I hear them But with all these things combined Still I can't hold them in my arms These sunglasses won't hide my tears I have lost so many years I see the road more than I see my family This is what I chose to be Son, take care of your brother You're a big boy now Kids, listen to your mother She will teach you how To be strong and brave To respect and behave For you is everything we've done Appreciate what you have and wait for me to come These sunglasses won't hide my tears I have lost so many years I see the road more than I see my family This is what I chose to be
