lyrics

Hiding from you seemed to be all I could do when I broke that window playing ball.
So I ran away from my hiding place but it only took until night fall for me to say,

Daddy can I come back? I'm sorry for what I've done. I know I've been bad, please don't be mad, daddy please can I come back home?

When I turned 18 I thought I'd do big things so I packed a bag and I hit the road.
Hitchiking in trucks I finally ran out of luck so I picked up the telephone and I said,

Daddy can I come back? I'm sorry for what I've done. I know I've been bad, please don't be mad, daddy please can I come back home?

The years have gone by, I've grown older with time but I'm no wiser than I was back then.
Still trying to hide all my sin and my pride on my knees I ask this question again.
Cause every time I try to do things my own way I just trip and fall. But Lord I need to be living by your grace. Father please, can I come back home?

Daddy can I come back? I'm sorry for what I've done. I know I've been bad, please don't be mad, daddy please can I come back home?
