Lyrics
When I was young, I held my tongue
And let my anger speak
You reached for me, I pulled away
Though I wished you’d sit with me
I thought the truth about myself
Might make you close the door
I’m sorry for the words I said
And all I left you guessing for
Verse 2
The day I told you who I was
I watched your face for clues
You stayed right there and heard me out
Till I’d said all I needed to
We talked for hours after that
And laughed at little things
Somewhere in those evenings, Dad
You became my closest friend
Chorus
Tell me again, Dad, that you know me
Say it like you used to do
When the house goes quiet in the evening
I still catch myself turning to you
I’d give anything to sit beside you
Hear you laugh and hold your hand
Tell me again, Dad, that you know me
Tell me you still understand
Verse 3
Something happened yesterday
You would’ve laughed to hear
I reached to call you out of habit
For a second, you were here
Sometimes a little sign will find me
In the middle of the day
And I hear your voice inside my heart
In the words you used to say
Bridge
I believe we’ll meet again
And when that day comes round
I’ll have years of things to tell you
So, Dad, you’d better sit down
But before I tell a single story
Before I say how much I’ve grown
I’ll hold your hand the way I used to
And let that moment be our own
Final Chorus
Tell me again, Dad, that you know me
Say it like you used to do
When the house goes quiet in the evening
I still catch myself turning to you
I’d give anything to sit beside you
Hear you laugh and hold your hand
Tell me again, Dad, that you know me
Tell me you still understand
Outro
I’m still your son, Dad
I always will be
