Lyrics
A Father's Love
His hand would always rub the top of my head and then slowly touch my cheek. He'd hold me in his arms before I went to bed, even watched me fall asleep. He worked real hard to give me everything I want, even sacrificied his time. It's hard to believe that all these years have come and gone, cause now I realize...
(chorus)
That even when he wasn't there and the time we couldn't share, I know he gave all that he had for me. That's why I cherished every smile and every hug once in a while, in his eyes I could always see, what is a father's love.
He showed me how to hold a bat and catch a ball but couldn't go to every game. When I got old enough he bought me my first car knowing that would only change things. When I went away to school he was there and he kissed me on the cheek. As he walked away I saw him shed a tear, that was the man I wanted to be...
Working hard is what I know I have to do cause it's all my father did. Now I'm older and I'm walking in his shoes, I think I finally get it.
(2nd Chorus)
That even when I am not there and my time I cannot share, you know I'll give you everything you need. That's why I cherish every smile and every hug once in a while in my eyes you will always see, what is a father's love, what is father's love.
