Why, Dad?

I miss being your answer. Lyrics Title: WHY, DAD? Verse 1 Father’s Day is over now, coffee cups and folding chairs. Laughter died with the sunset, taillights fading down the road somewhere. This old house still holds their echoes, ghosts of sneakers on the floor. I stand here in the quiet, hearing voices that don’t live here anymore. Pre-Chorus I should be grateful, Lord knows I am, but gratitude and loneliness walk hand in hand. Chorus (Main Hook) The questions stopped years ago, quiet as the falling rain. No small voice tugging at my sleeve, no little hand calling out my name. Why’s the sky so blue? How do engines run? Where does the moon go when the morning comes? I got a thousand answers burning in my head… But I’d trade ’em all tonight for one more “Why, Dad?” Verse 2 Back then I was their giant, keeper of the mysteries. Every rock and frog and thunderstorm was another chance to teach. Now these rooms are full of memories, the walls still know their names. I’m proud of the souls they’ve become, but Lord, nothing stays the same. Pre-Chorus Time keeps rolling on, that’s what it does, still some nights this old heart aches for what once was. Chorus The questions stopped years ago, quiet as the falling rain. No small voice tugging at my sleeve, no little hand calling out my name. Why’s the sky so blue? How do engines run? Where does the moon go when the morning comes? I got a thousand answers burning in my head… But I’d trade ’em all tonight for one more “Why, Dad?” Bridge (half-spoken, building) So I sit here with the crickets, empty living room so still. I’d give every tomorrow just to feel that old thrill… Final Chorus (slower, raw, emotional peak) Why’s the world so big? Can a frog talk to God? Why do people grow old? Why is life so hard? The answers never mattered, it was the asking that I loved. Father’s Day is over now… and I’d give anything I have for one more… “Why, Dad?” #fathersday #aimusic #countrymusic #emotionalmusic #lyricvideo © 2026 ​⁠ @SKUIRAL Original content created by me, with AI assistance.
