about

This is a song I wrote in 2012 and recorded and released in 2014 on my "Lovebrain 2" album. This single re-release marks the 10th Father's Day since he departed.

lyrics

Sometimes I realize how much I love you
How much you've taught me all through the years
When I was a child you re-assured me
Answered my questions helped me cope with my fears

Now that I'm older I can really see you
I can really see you the way that you are
There's something that I've been meaning to tell you
Without your guidance, I'd never have come very far

Thank You Dad-Appreciate It
Thank You Dad-For Everything
Thank You Dad Thank You Dad

When I was a child I had a role model
Wasn't no superhero on TV.
And though you weren't around as much as we wanted
You worked so hard for the family
Now that I've grown up and had my own children
I understand the life that you've lived
I only hope I can live up to the standard
It's pretty high, I'm proud to be your kid

Thank You Dad-Appreciate It
Thank You Dad-For Everything
Thank You Dad Thank You Dad

Sometimes I realize how much I love you
You were the one who showed me the way
I want to take the time to thank you, my Father
For giving me a chance to sing and have faith

I thank God every day for my Father
So let me sing this song on Father's Day
I have been blessed to learn from the best
Right now my best is just to play my piano and sing

Thank You Dad-Appreciate It
Thank You Dad-For Everything
Thank You Dad Thank You Dad
