He Wasn't There Lyrics

He wasn't there when I needed him No, he was never around His reputation was preceding him And he was out on the town
It didn't matter if he let me down I didn't care about the lies But all I knew was that he loved me very much He was my hero in disguise
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him Oh, well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did And everyone said you have to give him some time And I'm glad that I gave it to him 'cause now everything's fine
Now you see I never thought you'd be A constant person in my life And I don't think that you would be If you'd have stayed with your ex wife
I know you wouldn't but there is no need No need to apologize Because I know you'll always love me very much You are my hero in disguise
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him Oh, well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did And everyone said you have to give him some time And I'm glad that I gave it to him 'cause now everything's fine
You might have thought you didn't teach me much But you taught me right from wrong And it was when you didn't keep in touch Well, it taught me to be strong
And just in case you ever thought I would I wouldn't change you for the world Because I know you'll always love me very much I'll always be your little girl
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him Oh, well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did And everyone said you have to give him some time And I'm glad that I gave it to him 'cause now everything's fine
