harvey andrews - simply being dad lyrics

Loading...

today you phoned to say h-llo
you couldn´t come, you had to go
see a friend, stay to tea
you thought you ought to just give me a call

yes, you should have rung on friday night
but just forgot, was that alright?
you knew that i would understand
i hadn´t got an evening planned at all

and there you go again
making me count from one to ten
the hardest job i´ve had
is simply being dad

it´s not a role you learn to play
you improvise from day to day
the crowd who watch have all been there
and shuddered in that spotlight glare alone

you didn´t choose, you had no say
i picked you up along the way
and love can be a heavy load
to carry on that long, long road to home

and there you go again
making me count from one to ten
the hardest job i´ve had
is simply being dad

you need sp-ce to dance and turn
i must show that fires burn
you make mistakes, learn from pain
same mistakes you´ll make again next year

and sometimes do i care too much
do we collide instead of touch
do i provide a helping hand
or do i hold you back or stand too near?

’cause there you go again
making me count from one to ten
the hardest job i´ve had
is simply being dad

so knuckle down and do your best
you´re in the race with all the rest
the hard ones make it all the way
the dreamers just wake up one day behind

when the sun is cold, the evening´s come
you´ve marched on to a different drum
i know i´ve said it all before
but much of life is like a war you´ll find

and there i go again
making you count from one to ten
the hardest job you´ve had
is simply having dad
yes, the hardest job you´ve had
is simply having dad
