Fishing for Love

[Intro]
Years of silence, silent tears,
Dreams of fishing, all these years.
Now I stand, proud and free,
Taking my children, family with me.

[Verse 1]
He promised days by the water’s edge,
Never kept those words, no pledge.
Early tears as a kid, wonder why?
Caught in a web of his silent goodbye.

[Pre-Chorus]
He’d say, 'We’ll fish, just you and me,'
Echoes in my memories.
But time moved on, he slipped away,
Left us in the shadows, memories to stay.

[Chorus]
Now I take my kids to the lake,
Watch their faces light and wake.
Every cast, every swing,
Their laughter makes my heart sing.
He never took me fishing, no,
But now they’re the ones who know.
Joy in every splash and smile,
Passing on love piece by piece, mile by mile.

[Verse 2]
Years of success, quiet dreams,
Behind closed doors, silent screams.
Never saw grandkids’ eyes shine,
But now, their joy is truly mine.

[Pre-Chorus]
He said he’d take me out someday,
Promises lost in yesterday.
But here I am, making it right,
Filling their days with pure delight.
Father father where have you been
Two meanings
One hurt
One joy
Haven’t you seen?

[Chorus]
Now I take my kids to the lake,
Watch their faces light and wake.
Every cast, every swing,
Their laughter makes my heart sing.
He never took me fishing, no,
But now they’re the ones who know.
Joy in every splash and smile,
Passing on love piece by piece, mile by mile.

[Bridge]
Memories fade, but love stays true,
Watching my children, feeling new.
Their happiness, my redemption song,
Righting the wrongs, where I belong.

[Outro]
One day they’ll tell their kids,
Of the love that always lives.
Fishermen of hope, hearts strong,
Right the past, where it belongs.

Now I take my kids to the lake,
Their joyful spirits, my heart will stake.
Fishing for love, catching dreams,
Forevermore, or so it seems.
