A DAD I DIDN'T HAVE TO BE
I seen her first steps when she walked to you
I was there holding her for the first breathe she blew
She came to you for advice about a boy
You cherish every moment together, with her you’re life’s a
joy
She’s a teen now, and she has withdrawn from you
Don’t worry she’ll be back, and you can talk it through
It almost hurts as much as when her dad walked out on you
On her wedding I gave her away, I was the dad I didn’t have
to be
I remember you thought the tux I was wearing looked so gay
Until you seen you’re daughter dancing the first dance with
me
Now thinking back the first time when you scrapped your knee
I cried it hurt me more than you, I remember all the tears
we’ve been through
Now she has a child of her own, and you’re now a grand
mother
I will forever remember all times we been through good and
the bad together
Now you can watch her cry when her baby rides her first bike
