If he loves his family so much and they love him, why is he away from them? Where is he?



Here are the words:
He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say I love you one more time
And when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
And said "Daddy when you coming home"
He said the first thing that came to his mind

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there

She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes

I'm already there

Dad is a musician out on tour. Mom and kids are at home. Dad calls home, says "I miss you guys". The mom and kids say, "We miss you, too." Dad says, "Don't miss me, I'll be with you, wherever you are." I have the CD - it's a great song. The original song was inspired by a conversation that Richie McDonald, the lead singer of Lonestar, had with his wife and son.

There's another version that talks about soldiers at war, and has remarks from families of actual soldiers throughout the song. I've linked to a CD in the sources section that has both versions on it.

Where he is isn't the point. Maybe he's talking about being on tour and missing his family. The song is saying he's always there in his heart and mind, even if he's not physically there.

he could be anywhere. a singer on the road, a business man on the road, a soldier at war. it doesn't really matter where, cause in his heart and mind, he is home with his family
