Hey son, "How was your day?"
You look at me and that's all you say
And I can't help but feel dejected
I'm just a son you adopted
While someone else simply rejected
Those four words mean so much
They cut deep and leave no crutch
And I wonder do you ever regret
That I'm your son
Cause I've grown up lost and a mess
Hey dad, "When I have a son of my own"
He'll never live inside a broken home
Two parents near and holding him
And if he falls I'll be there to catch him
To dry the tears that shower him
I don't want to hear a thank you
Cause to ba a father, that's who you need to be
Put your son before yourself
Put yourself behind your son
I'll have his back and show him love
"Dad I'm going to be everything you never were
I'm going to teach the things you never taught
I'm going to seek the things you never sought
... and I'm going to love my son, like you never did."
