|
Do you recall when I was six |
|
I got lost out in the woods and you worried yourself sick |
|
What about the day I got in my first fight |
|
Mama she got mad but you swelled up with pride |
|
I never knew how deep a fathers love could run |
|
Until I had a son |
|
{Chorus} |
|
From watching him learn how to crawl |
|
To skinned up knees from skateboard falls |
|
To praying he'd get through football alive |
|
From hearing his first words spoken |
|
The first time his heart got broken |
|
And knowing soon he'll spread his wings and fly |
|
I guess I didn't know what a Daddy goes thru |
|
Til I was a Daddy too |
|
Real love the kind that you can't understand |
|
Until you hold it in your arms and touch it with your hands |
|
Pure joy the kind that you can only find |
|
When you live your life for them |
|
And leave yourself behind |
|
More and more I'm seeing life go by |
|
Thru my Daddy's eyes |
|
{Chorus} |
|
The fast pace of time goes racing |
|
From first grade to graduation |
|
And knowing soon he'll spread his wings and fly |
|
I guess I didn't know what a Daddy goes through |
|
Til I was a Daddy too |
|
I guess I didn't know what a Daddy goes through |
