Father Love Lyrics

he’s grounded and he’s subtle.
i know he’d step over the puddle,
back in the day when we went on hikes together.
“cold feet will cause a sickness,” he’d say.
he played it safe, but i splashed anyway
i never listened.
he used to hold me in his hand, with the strength of
one arm.
i’ve grown since then. yea, i’ve grown since then.
now i’m three feet closer to the stars.

you and mom would laugh at such a kid like me.
this childhood is a good one.
i know i’m well grounded, and i always feel surrounded
by your safety, and your fatherlove.

if i had a drop of water for every feast he’s cooked
for me
i could take california’s coast and bury it under the
sea
he takes care of me, and yosh and mom.
that’s one, two, three other people besides himself
the way it’s always been.
he used to hold me in his hand, with the strength of
one arm.
i’ve grown since then. yea, i’ve grown since then.
now i’m three feet closer to the stars.Denali Gillaspie - Father Love - http://motolyrics.com/denali-gillaspie/father-love-lyrics.html

you and mom would laugh at such a kid like me.
this childhood is a good one.
i know i’m well grounded, and i always feel surrounded
by your safety, and your fatherlove.

won’t you take me and create me to have a mind of my
own?
i appreciate what you did, making me a homegrown kid.
now you're listening to our 18 years of history,
our 18 years together with homemade christmas presents
under our plastic christmas tree.
we don't tear our nature down
just so we can throw it out come january.
no we're not together now, no we're not together now.
but please don't worry about me
now that i'm out of the house.

laughing at the earthquakes in your chair
and the mohawks that you let us put in your hair
you’re a good man.
you’re a good, good man for putting up with us.

you and mom would laugh at such a kid like me.
this childhood is a good one.
i know i’m well grounded, and i always feel surrounded
by your safety, and your fatherlove.
