Dad

I was a kid, you were my dad

I didn't always understand

I wanted freedom, you got mad

You were concerned, I got upsetI didn't recognize you yet

And did you cry? I know, I did

When I lied to you I didn't want to hurt you

I just never knew I didYou never told me that you loved me

I know you didn't know how

I guess that shows we're much the same

'Cause I love you too and until now

I've never said those words out loud

I hope you're proud to be my dadWhat are your secrets? Do you pray?

Is there a God that shows your way?

I wish, I knewDo you have crazy fantasies?

What happens in your dreams?

I wanna knowI guess you'll always be a mystery to me

But you taught me how to value life

And what else do I need

I have a dad who watches over me
