I hope you remember me, I was your daddy once |
|
Wearing a sailor cap and dirty nails |
|
To you I'm just a picture on your mother's mantelpiece |
|
Who chose to fight the good fight in time to fail |
|
Into battle and in your shadow |
|
Your daddy loves you still, yes I do |
|
I never thought it'd be so hard to see you grow so fast |
|
And turn into the man I used to be |
|
But I hope you have more sense than I, in matters such as these |
|
Medals don't mean a shit when a family is lost at sea |
|
Into battle and in your shadow |
|
Your daddy loves you still, yes he does, yes he does |
|
Into battle and in your shadow |
|
Your daddy loves you still, yes he does, yeah, yes he does |
|
I save every moment I've reached out and almost touched you |
|
But they all fade away, must be a bad memory |
|
Into battle and in your shadow |
|
Your daddy loves you still, yes he does, yes he does |
|
Into battle and in your shadow |
|
Your daddy loves you still, yes he does, yeah, yes he does, yes he does |
