[FATHER]
Each day, I got you out of bed
Saw that you were fed
That's what I could do

Sundays, I'd give you change to go
To a picture show
That's what I could do
That's all I knew to do

You're the image of your mama
She's in everything you are
You've got her eyes, you've got her smile –
But your own spirit carried you this far
If I could
I'd take away your scar

Forgive me
You're my only star
Look how bright
Look how strong
Look how beautiful you are

I raised you stronger, child, than me
Which you'll always be
That's what I could do
I raised you strong enough to start
Seein' with your heart
That's what I could do
That's all I knew to do
The rest, I guess, is up to you

(spoken)
Child, is there someone who can make you happy? It's alright, you don't have to say. I understand. Keep a secret from your old man.
