Single Father
Single Father
Lately I've been spendin' lots of time with my kid
Tellin' him stories
About the things that we did
When we were a family
Long time ago
I've answered his questions
Till I'm blue in the face
Wish all the hurt in him
I could erase
But I tell him the truth
'Cause he ain't too young to know
Single father
Part time mother
When I'm not one
Then I'm the other
You used to be
My full time lover
Now I'm a single father
And a part time mother
I spend every minute
I can with my boy
There's no doubt about it
He's my pride and joy
Someday he'll grow up
And I won't have him no more
Some things I just find
Too hard to explain
So we go to McDonalds
Or I buy him a train
And we put it together
On the living room floor
Such is the life
Of a single father
He says daddy explain
If it's not too much bother
While it's just you and me
Living here in this home
I don't understand it
And either does he
Why there's just two
When there should be three of us
Sharing this moment
Lord I feel so alone
(Repeat chorus)

From a single mom we know
From a single mom we know exactly how ya'll truly feel
Sounds like you have stepped up to the plate as a father even though it may hurt telling the truth its the best, they dont come with instructions. Dont ever think you wont have him Bob, he may grow up and do his thing but he will NEVER forget those times you spent together. Your a Good man.
