Lyrics
You're My Father - I'm Your Son
Duke Nguyen Browning
Copyright © 2008 All rights Reserved
In the mirror, there are two pictures
In the mirror, two distinct figures
But people say I am just like you
The way I walk, I say, I do.
Of all the things I've learned from you
Of all the things I've watched you do
No wonder why so many say I act like you
I hardly try, but people say I do.
You're my father, I am your son
You show me how to be independent
Your loving care is my experience;
Someday I'll pass it on to my own son
You're my father, I am your son
Before too long I'll be independent
Your loving care, your influence
Will be carried on for generations to come
If there's still something missing
If there's more I should think or do
I want you show me what is right
Or it will be too late when you're not around.
You're my father, I am your son
You show me how to be independent
Your loving care is my experience;
Someday I'll pass it on to my own son
You're my father, I am your son
Before too long I'll be independent
Your loving care, your influence
Will be carried on for generations to come

If there's still something missing
If there's more I should think or do
No wonder why so many say I act like you
I hardly try, but people say I do.
You're my father, I am your son
You show me how to be independent
Your loving care is my experience;
Someday I'll pass it on to my own son
You're my father, I am your son
Before too long I'll be independent
Your loving care, your influence
Will be carried on for generations to come
It will be too late when you're not around.
It will be too late when you're not around.
All the things I've learned from you
Of all things I've watched you do
People say I am just like you
I hardly try, but people say I do.
Yeah yeah oh yeah
Oh oh yeah.
