Now That We're Not a Family Video (MV)

As a child they were the world to me
I was the quiet trusting kind
She gave me love
He gave me honesty
He told me he and mom couldn't get along
It was time for him to leave

And I said, "Now that it's not your home
Who's gonna sing me off to sleep?
Now that you're on your own
Who's gonna answer when I call you?"

At the sound of the tone
Just a voice on the phone
Now that we're not a family

What did I do to make you both so mad
I know it must have been my fault
We share the memories
That we all had
But they're hard to hold
In December's cold
And I know that they won't bring you back

Now that it's not your home
Who's gonna help us trim the tree
Now that you've got your own
Will you be here on Christmas morning?

Wipe the sleep from my eyes
Check your room, no surprise
Now that we're not a family

I've memorized some things about you
But they're an undependable
Substitute without you

Now that it's not your home
You've got a brand new family
A new baby of your own
Pretty soon she'll call you daddy

And you'll always be there
Something we'll never share
Now that we're not a family

At the sound of the tone
"Sorry we're not at home"
Now that we're not a family
