Since I can remember Since I was a child You gave me all you could and all you had Now that I am older and now that I am grown I see how hard you worked to make our house a home
If I turn out half the man you are I’ll be happy with my life You showed me how to raise a family and how to treat a wife You put food on the table so that I was able to follow every one of my dreams If I turn out half the man you are I’ll be doing alright
You said don’t let life get in your way, that would never get me down Love as if there’s no tomorrow to stand to be a man I can’t always make it easy but I’ll always lend a hand If whatever comes together you and I will understand
If I turn out half the man you are I’ll be happy with my life You showed me how to raise a family and how to treat a wife You put food on the table so that I was able to follow every one of my dreams If I turn out half the man you are I’ll be doing alright
And I know that I’m still hurting But I hope I make you proud At the man that I’m becoming and the man I am now And I know that I’ll keep learning Never told you this before You’re not only just a father To me you’re so much more
To me you’re so much more
If I turn out half the man you are I’ll be happy with my life You showed me how to raise a family and how to treat a wife You put food on the table so that I was able to follow every one of my dreams If I turn out half the man you are I’ll be doing alright
And I love, l love, I love, I love I love, I love you so And I love, l love, I love, I love I love, I love you so
