When You Come Around

You know what my daddy's name is

What is your daddy's name

His name is Love

Well I'd like to say

You're the one I look up to

And all my life

I've always tried to be like you

Your little man your biggest fan

But then I'd just be wishin' for

What I never had

A lovin' father instead of

Just a weekend dad

With liquor on his breath

And be scared to death

When you come around

I'd like to see my daddy

And not some wild-eyed stranger

Who shows up once in a while

A soul that's found all

That he's been missin'

And you finally turn

That corner in your life

Each night I pray

That people see the day

When you come around

And Lord knows

We'd have a lot of catchin' up to do

'Cause there's so many things

I'd love to share with you

Maybe take a walk

A little time to talk

You could call us up

And spend some time

With your grandsons

Tell 'em stories take 'em fishin'

While they're still young

We could finally be a real family

When you come around

I'd like to see my daddy

And not some wild-eyed stranger

Who shows up once in a while

A soul that's found

That there's still time for livin'

And you finally turn

That corner in your life

Each night I pray

That people see the day

When you come around

To have you in my life

Would be a dream come true

For me to say "I love you"

And to hear you say it too

When you come around

I'd like to see my daddy

And not some wild-eyed stranger

Who shows up once in a while

A soul that's found all

It takes to be forgiven

Is to finally

Turn that corner in your life

Oh I can't wait to

Be standin' there that day

When you come around

When you come around
