|
When I was a child |
|
So wild and free |
|
Sometimes I'd stumbled |
|
Or fall from a tree |
|
But I didn't worry |
|
And I didn't care |
|
I knew that my daddy |
|
Would always be there |
|
Oh, he was my friend |
|
When no one could make |
|
Never too busy |
|
Oh, he'd find a way |
|
Then off we would rambled |
|
With the wind in our hair |
|
I knew that my daddy |
|
Would always be there |
|
But time has no mercy |
|
For a growing young soul |
|
It leaves us with memories |
|
While it makes us grow old |
|
I left my heart |
|
When school days were through |
|
With visions of freedom |
|
Oh, when dreams do come true |
|
I've never worried |
|
And I've never cared |
|
I knew that my daddy |
|
Would always be there |
|
One night while traveling |
|
Word came by phone |
|
The message was simple |
|
You're needed at home |
|
So once I did worry |
|
For once I did care |
|
I prayed that my daddy would wait for me there |
|
Time has no mercy |
|
For the growing young soul |
|
It leaves us with memories |
|
While it makes us grow old |
|
But time has no mercy |
|
For the growing young soul |
|
It leaves us with memories |
|
While it makes us grow old |
|
While it makes us grow old |
