Your father wants to talk with me This Sunday afternoon I’ve rehearsed a hundred lines None of them sound smooth I bought his favorite bottle And a tie in navy blue I hope he sees what you already know How much I care for you Will he shake my hand and laugh? Will he say I’m doing fine? Will he tell us both to go And live the life we have in mind? I’m standing at the front door now Trying not to look afraid Love is easy when it’s you and me The hard part starts today The old dog by the porch Keeps staring at my face Maybe he’s the first one here To judge me in this place Your mother lets me in The room begins to spin Your father looks above his glasses And says, “Where do we begin?” Will he shake my hand and laugh? Will he say I’m doing fine? Will he tell us both to go And live the life we have in mind? Maybe he’ll tell stories About when he was young Maybe he’ll remember He once stood where I stand now He shook my hand and laughed Said everything’s alright He told us both to go And build the life we like The old dog came around And rested by my feet The thing I feared the most Was the easiest to meet #OriginalSong #LoveSong #StorySong #SingerSongwriter #IndieMusic #acousticrock
