Dan Hill - Memories (revisited) Şarkı Sözleri
Dan Hill
| Şarkı Sözleri
memories of when i was a little boy, four years old, waiting for my daddy to come home, and now i look into the eyes of my own son, wondering what he´s thinking of, waiting at the window when i come home. watch his eyes fill up with joy and wonder. he reaches out his tiny hands; i feel the bond ´tween boy and man. memories of my mom cryin´, my daddy gone for weeks at a time, not knowing how to comfort her, facin´ my pillow, pretendin´ not to hear. now i write this letter to my little boy. i´m far away, not knowing really what to say except, "i´m sorry, oh so sorry." i don´t want to make these same mistakes my daddy made with me. still his voice rolls off my tongue when i say, "boy, protect your mom." memories of my wife crying on the phone wonderin´ when i´m coming home. my voice sounds detached and cold, reminds me of someone that i knew; he had a funny attitude when i needed him to be all the things only a daddy could be to me. and i don´t want to make the same mistakes my daddy made with me. still his voice rolls off my tongue when i say, "not now, i´m busy son." memories of lying in bed with my wife and son, overwhelmed by so much love, tryin´ to explain how a man can cry yet still be happy, thinking of all the dumb mistakes i´ve made. now i understand my father´s pain; he did the best with what he knew. i love you daddy. i watched my son fall asleep and wonder what he´ll think of me when years from now he sees his son reaching out his tiny hands for love.
