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  submitted by cackmoo corrected by Joey citelli on 08-12-2006 |

 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 =] |

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. |

226 posts | ya, i like this song and the whole band in general, i remember listening to YC when sure shot was a big hit, and trying to tell my friends how good of a band they were, but no one believed me, so when ocean avanue hit it big, i sat back and laughed at all of them |

3 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Omg I'm totally in love with this song. I love how its about him WANTING to be like his dad unlike all the other bands that always say they don't want to. ITs good to hear something more positive. It is so great. Yellowcard has such awesome songs all the time!
i love this song so much |
