I'd like to be a father someday
See the world through my children's eyes
I'd like their mother to have me
For forever and some time
But I don't know if I'll ever have that
That simple life
But I'd like to be a father someday
Oh wouldn't that, oh wouldn't that be nice?
Sometimes I think I might die young
And I might die alone
Oh god I wish I knew the answers
I can be prepared if I know
But I hope that there's someone for me
Someone who cares
Sometimes I think I might die young
And honestly, and honestly I'm scared
Will I do everything I want to?
Or will it hurt when I go?
While there's still places to see
And there's still more to know
And I like the idea of
Of being here for something
Will I do everything I want to
Or will I do, will I do nothing?
I'd like to be a father someday
See the world through my children's eyes
I'd like to hear their laughter
And be there for when they cry
I don't know if I'll ever have that
That simple life
I'd like to be a father someday
Oh wouldn't that, oh wouldn't that be nice?
