    Story Behind the Song
    My dad died when I was 9 months old. This song asks what life would have been like if he'd been around.

    Recorded in home studio in 1998. Song started in Austin, Texas in 1995 while watching my own son playing in Circle C Park (age 6).

    Lyrics
    I WONDER (c) Andy Thornton Mills, 1998

    I was young, just started my life
    A new soul, a brand new smile
    One more for the world
    Helpless in this strange new light

    What more could you ask, a perfect delight
    A family with mother and father alright
    None could bear, thoughts of one not there
    Leaving the other alive

    I wonder what it would have been like
    If you were around
    You missed just about all of my life
    Your sun (just) went down
    You slipped out of sight
    Dad where did you go that night

    There were things I needed to say,
    Through all of my life, to your face
    But all I could do, was pray
    And hope that you heard, somehow

    What more could you ask, at least I had life
    When you had been drawn away to the light
    The space that you left, the empty room
    Knowing you wouldn't be coming back soon

    Chorus
