Lyrics

[Verse 1]

From the day you first held me

And all the days since then

You've always been with me

As a hero and a friend

Even when we were fighting

We would end up right again

[Verse 2]

You taught me of compassion

How to always lend a hand

You said, give more than you take, son

Be mindful where you stand

There are those who'll try to break you

But don't let them think they can

[Chorus]

No matter where we go now

Or what changes come

You will always be my father

And I'll always be your son

[Verse 3]

You'd tell me every morning

Time to rise and greet the day

You said, give an honest effort

And sent me on my way

With mum beside you crying

That was all you had to say

[Verse 4]

Time has beaten on your body

Left you feeling old

But you're still the same to me, dad

The strongest man I've ever known

I would give you some of my good years

So you could have just a little more

[Chorus]

No matter where we go now

Or what changes come

You will always be my father

And I'll always be your son

[Verse 5]

A home has its foundation

A story has its truth

A pillar I can lean on

When my heart breaks through

A ship has its sails and I

Will always have you

[Chorus]

No matter where we go now

Or what changes come

You will always be my father

And I'll always be your son

[Outro]

No matter where we go now

Or what changes come

You will always be my father

And I'll always be your son
