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 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 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 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 Til I was a Daddy too
