brad paisley – half the man lyrics
when a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new
it always winds up feeling more like a job interview
my momma used to wonder if she’d ever meet someone
that wouldn’t find out about me and then turn around and run
i met the man i call my dad when i was five years old
he took my mom out to a movie, and for once i got to go
a few months later i remember lying there in bed
i overheard him pop the question and i prayed that she’d say yes
and then all of a sudden, oh it seemed so strange to me
how we went from ‘something’s missing’ to a family
looking back all i can say about all the things he did for me
is i hope i’m at least half the dad that he didn’t have to be
i met the girl that’s now my wife about three years ago
we had the perfect marriage but we wanted something more
now here i stand surrounded by our family and friends
crowded round the nursery window as they bring the baby in
and now all of a sudden, oh it seems so strange to me
how we’ve gone from ‘something’s missing’ to a family
looking through the gl-ss i think about the man that’s standing next to me
and i hope i’m at least half the daddy that he didn’t have to be
and looking back all i can say about all the things he did for me
is i hope i’m at least half the dad that he didn’t have to be
yeah i hope i’m at least half the dad that he didn’t have to be
because he didn’t have to be
you know he didn’t have to be
