What's a Dad for, Dad?
Tell me why I'm here, Dad
Whisper in my ear
That I'm growing up to be a better man, Dad
Everything is fine, Dad 
Proud that you are my Dad
Cause I know Im growing up to be a better man

Father, I will always be
That same boy that stood by the sea
And watched you tower over me
Now I'm older, I want to be the same as you

Whats a dad for, Dad?
Taught me how to stand, Dad
Took me by the hand, Dad
And showed me how to be a bigger man, Dad
Listened when you talked, Dad
Followed where you walked, Dad
And you know that I will always do the best I can, I can

Father, I will always be (always be)
that same boy that stood by the sea
And watched you tower over me (over me)
Now I'm older I want to be the same as you
The same as you

Father, I will always be
that same boy that stood by the sea
And watched you tower over me
Now I'm older I want to be the same as you

Father, I will always be
that same boy that stood by the sea
And watched you tower over me
Now I'm older I want to be the same as you

33 posts	Even though I'm not a huge Yellowcard fan, I love this song. I listen to a lot of bands on the radio now talking about how they hate their dads, and I'm like "But I love my dad...what about me?" so this is perfect.

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I love this song to death. I personally have always thought that they wrote it as a tribute to the Arthur Miller play Death of a Salesman where Biff Loman didn't turn out exactly the way his father had hoped and they don't have the best relationship but he still loves his father. I don't know that's just me =]
