Do da da da
La da la
Play it, play it

I know, I´m not the man you thought I´d be
We started out so young
Your mother, and me
I know that I hurt you
I was a child trying to be a man
I walked out on my only son
I left you in your mother´s hands
And now I´m standing right here
With tears, with tears streaming from my eyes
See your mother raised a fine young man
And I know I missed so much of your life

Look at me
Take a real good look at me
Don´t turn away
Don´t you turn away like I did my son
I´m making no more promises
I´m trying to find the word to say

Daddy´s home (yeah)
Daddy´s home (been gone too long)
Daddy´s home (said your daddy´s back home)
Daddy´s home (and for every birthday that I missed my son)
Daddy´s home (I´m gonna make it all up to you)
Daddy´s home (everytime I made your mother cry)
Daddy´s home (she laid awake at night, holding her pillow tight)
Daddy´s home (oh oh)

Do you remember the day I walked out on you?
There was nothing I could say, nothing you could do
I missed your first words, I couldn´t hear you talk
I missed your first steps, when you tried to walk, baby
Now I know and you know you can take care of yourself
You had to run, you had to run to somebody else
(Daddy´s home)
Didn´t be a good father, I wasn´t there
But talk to me son, tell me how you feel

[Shappell Crawford]
Daddy why would you leave your only son
Give me somethin´, I could hold on
You left me here alone
Now you´ve decided to come back home
And I realize
That´s it´s gonna take a little time for you and me to get again
I think we can do it, do you think we can do it?

If you wanna be my dad again
We´ve got to start all over, be friends
If you wanna be my dad again
We´ve got to start all over, be friends
If you wanna be my dad again
We´ve got to start all over, be friends
If you wanna be my dad again
We´ve got to start all over, be friends

[Montell]
Just look at me
Heeee, look at me
