[00:29.16]I paid first and last month's rent
[00:32.75]I wondered why I'm even carrying that old bed of mine
[00:37.54]It is not like I ever sleep
[00:42.96]All I do is to think of her
[00:46.71]And wonder how I am gonna make tings work
[00:49.76]Coz I know as a dad I've got a lot of responsibilites
[00:57.27]Even though God gave this gift to the both of us
[01:03.29]Somehow every other weekend is how it ended up
[01:11.02]
[01:11.98]So when the telephone rings
[01:15.18]I drop everything
[01:17.50]Cause when all you got is that 8 o'clock
[01:21.36]Nite nite daddy miss you a lot
[01:24.45]I stop in my tracks
[01:27.80]And I try to act strong when she calls
[01:34.39]And I thank God 
[01:36.65]she can't hear tears when they fall
[01:48.03]
[01:49.74]Now its her Dr. Seuss and me 
[01:53.12]and she's learning how to read
[01:55.96]And I cant see those pictures
[01:58.43]but I can hear those pages turn
[02:02.78]And her mum says it bath time 
[02:06.33]so she blows a kiss through the line
[02:09.87]I don't know what's worse 
[02:12.01]saying goodbye or talking to her
[02:16.80]
[02:17.70]Coz I'm the one who should be there tucking her in the bed
[02:23.98]But since her voice is all I have 
[02:27.68]I'm thankful for what I get
[02:32.10]
[02:32.51]so when the telephone rings
[02:35.73]I drop everything
[02:37.95]Coz when all you got is that 8 o'clock
[02:41.81]Nite nite daddy miss you a lot
[02:44.96]I stop in my tracks
[02:48.29]And I try to act strong when she calls
[02:54.92]And I thank God she can't hear tears
[03:01.04]
[03:02.34]If she knew I was crying 
[03:05.67]she might think it's her fault
[03:09.31]oh but that's just me missing her
[03:13.38]Every time we talk
[03:22.47]Every time we talk
[03:29.55]
[03:31.85]So when the telephone rings
