Worn out stitches on a baseball up against the wall
Me and myself tryna play catch
'Cause Daddy ain't home yet
I was Batman, Robin, and the Joker, too
It was Gotham City lonesome in the living room
And Mama would say "You pray 'cause your daddy's gonna be late"
But the lights stayed on somehow
And love filled up my little house
Yeah, life ain't always what it seems
'Cause I thought all he ever did was leave
But somebody played Tooth Fairy, left the cash, took out the trash
Made Mama feel pretty, put a dent in the whiskey
There were tip-toe prayers and midnight kisses
"I love you's" and little boy wishes
For Saturday's where we could play all day
But the lights stayed on somehow
And love filled up my little house
Yeah, life ain't always what it seems
'Cause I thought all he ever did was leave
Worn out stitches on a baseball up against the wall
He and himself tryna play catch
'Cause I ain't home yet
But the lights stayed on somehow
And love fills up my little house
Yeah, life ain't always what it seems
I hope he don't think
I hope he don't think
All I ever do is leave
All I ever do is leave
