I was a kid, you were my dad

I didn't always understand

I wanted freedom, you got mad

You were concerned, I got upset

I didn't recognized 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 did



You 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 never said those words out loud

I hope you're proud

to be my dad



What are you secrets, do you pray

Is there a God that shows your way

I wish I knew...

Do you have crazy fantasies

What happens in your dreams

I want to know...



I guess you'll always be a mystery to me

but you thought me how to value life

and what else do I need

I have a dad who watches over me
