what do i know about a father's love?
what do i know about a father's kiss?
what do i know about a father's hug?
what do i know about a father to miss?
cause mine's been gone since my time began
i was born, then off he ran
and i don't know why he abandoned me
it was always my mother's love that constantly protected me
from the truth, that i had to grow up without him in my youth, so,
what do i know about a father's pain?
what do i know about a father's tears?
what do i know about a father's name?
what do i know about a father's fears?
for i'm sorry to say i can't speak on any of this, but i live and pray
on this one wish that before this world gives in i'll say
 "i love you dad, happy father's day"
