Do you recall (dad) when I was six 

I got lost out in the woods and you worried yourself sick 

What about the day I got in my first fight 

Mama she got mad but you swelled up with pride 

I never knew how deep a fathers love could run 

Until I had a son 



Chorus: 

From watching him learn how to crawl 

To skinned up knees from skateboard falls 

To praying he'd get through football alive 

From hearing his first words spoken 

The first time his heart got broken 

And knowing soon he'll spread his wings and fly 

I guess I didn't know what a Daddy goes thru 

Til I was a Daddy too 



Real love the kind that you can't understand 

Until you hold it in your arms and touch it with your hands 

Pure joy the kind that you can only find 

When you live your life for them 

And leave yourself behind 

More and more I'm seeing life go by 

Thru my Daddy's eyes 



Chorus 



The fast pace of time goes racing 

From first grade to graduation 

And knowing soon he'll spread his wings and fly 

I guess I didn't know what a Daddy goes through 

Til I was a Daddy too 



I guess I didn't know what a Daddy goes through 

Til I was a Daddy too
