(Verse 1)
Hey my child, please listen to me,
even when I can’t be where you sleep.
The roads of life have torn us apart,
but you’re the beat inside my heart.
(Pre-Chorus)
You might think I’m not around,
but I’m with you, every sight, every sound.
Though the walls keep us far away,
in my mind I walk with you each day.
(Chorus)
Everything I do, I do it for you,
every step I take, I carry you through.
Don’t forget how much I love you, please,
no matter what happens, you’re my greatest peace.
(Verse 2)
When you laugh, the whole world shines,
even if I miss some moments in time.
Know you’re my pride, my reason, my song,
my heart beats for you, all life long.
(Pre-Chorus)
Sometimes I cry when I miss your face,
but my love for you no one can erase.
No court, no fight, no ticking clock,
can ever break our unshaken bond.
(Chorus)
Everything I do, I do it for you,
every step I take, I carry you through.
Don’t forget how much I love you, please,
no matter what happens, you’re my greatest peace.
(Bridge)
Someday you’ll grow and maybe you’ll see,
love can remain, even in grief.
And if you ask: “Dad, where were you?”
I’ll say: “In my heart, I was with you.”
(Chorus – big and emotional)
Everything I do, I do it for you,
every step I take, I carry you through.
Don’t forget how much I love you, please,
no matter what happens, you’re my greatest peace.
(Outro – soft)
My child, my heart, please always know this:
Daddy loves you — don’t forget it.
