Forever Your Dad

[Spoken Word]:
Sometimes life doesn't work out the way you've planned
Sometimes life happens in ways too hard to understand

[Verse 1]:
The news that I received today
Has taken all my breath away
But I'm promising you right now
That I'll be with you always, somehow

Either hand-in-hand or worlds apart
Standing by your side or in your heart
Maybe in a sunset or a prayer

When you go on your first date
And can't figure out what to say
When you get behind the wheel
And have your first taste of freedom

When you're smilin' for the camera
At your high school formal dance and
When you're walkin' cross that stage
With your whole future a blank page

Please remember I'm going to be there

[Chorus]:
'Cause I promise you right now
That I'll be right with you always, somehow
Either hand-in-hand or worlds apart
Standing by your side or in your heart

Face-to-face or as a memory
Keep your eyes open and you'll see
That through the good times and the bad
I will forever be your dad

[Verse 2]:
If you're tryin' to get ahead
But the results are better left unsaid
And you're on the edge, about to quit
'Cause you just can't get the pieces to fit

When your heart is broken by some fool
Who doesn't know what he's done to you
Or you just need some advice on life
'Cause nothing seems to be going right
You have to know I'll always be there

[Chorus]:
'Cause I promise you right now
That I'll be right with you always, somehow
Either hand-in-hand or worlds apart
Standing by your side or in your heart

Face-to-face or as a memory
Keep your eyes open and you'll see
That through the good times and the bad
I will forever be your dad

I will forever be your dad

[Chorus | Bridge | Outro]:
'Cause I promise you right now
That I'll be right with you always, somehow
Either hand-in-hand or worlds apart
Standing by your side or in your heart

Face-to-face or as a memory
Keep your eyes open and you'll see
That through the good times and the bad
I will forever be your dad

I will forever be your dad
