Oh papa sit down, and hear my song
Oh, and if you feel like it then please sing along
No nothing that I wanna say, I haven?t said before
But to use your words, you can never be too sure
See, even though I don?t always show,
I?m glad that you?re around
I Said I?m glad that you're around
Oh son it's so strange, to hear and see
That someone so different is a soul like me
You may have gone right, where I would have gone left
But son, that?s alright. I will always have your back
See even though I don?t always show,
I?m proud that you're my son.
Old days, and all of the new.
Wanting to be like you
Every time I look at you I see myself
I?m so proud of you
for you have made me what I am
a better man.
I?m just so proud of you.
O dad, your views in life, tell me how they came to be.
Well see, I didn?t know my father like the way that you know me.
Son, life is just too short for us to never be in touch.
So that?s why I Wanna tell you that I love you very much.
Oh even though I don?t always show, you know
And I want you to know that
Every time I look at you
I see myself.
And I?m so proud of you
You have made me what I am.
A better man.
I?m just so proud of you.
I?m here, and I?ll be if I can - a father and a friend.
Oooh, every time I look at you.
Every time I look at you. (what you see)
I see myself.
And I?m so proud of you.
You have made me what I am.
A son and a friend.
I?m just so proud of you.
You know that one day too, I'll be walking in your shoes.
And I know that you'll do fine, 'cause you're a son of mine.
Oh dear papa tell me what you've learned,
so that I don't get my fingers burned.
Tomado de AlbumCancionYLetra.comSon, you'll see that as you go, you'll make mistakes of your own. But that's ok, man, see you live and you learn.
You live and you learn. Oooh...
