Most nights I try to pack
Got you climbin' on
my back
Sayin' Daddy when am
I gonna see you again
You know I
gotta go out
on the road
and get on with
the show
So most nights
your mama's gonna
tuck you in
When you're
missin' me
look at the stars
up there
I'll be wishin' on
the same ones
and singin' this
father's prayer
I hope you see
the seven wonders
I hope you sail
the seven seas
I hope you let
the whole world
in your heart
But you still got
room for me
I hope you find a guy
that treats you right
On your wedding night
I'll raise a toast
Hope he understands
I'll always be the man
that loves you
the most
4 BAR BREAK
Summer's gone
and school is back
It's my turn to
help you pack
I'll keep your room
exactly how it is
I know you gotta
go out on your own
I'm so proud of you
you know
You're the best thing
that this old man
ever did
When I'm
missin' you
and all the stars
come out
I'll sing this prayer
when the quiet
gets too loud
I hope you see
the seven wonders
I hope you sail
the seven seas
I hope you let
the whole world
in your heart
But you still got
room for me
I hope you find a guy
that treats you right
On your wedding night
I'll raise a toast
Hope he understands
I'll always be the man
who loves you
the most
Trust your gut
hold your own
But allow for
doubting too
Forgive the wrongs
and love yourself
That's the hardest
thing to do
If your back's against
the wall baby
Come on home
I'm always here
for you
And when you've seen
the seven wonders
When you've sailed
the seven seas
When you've change
the whole world
with your heart
I hope you
think of me
When I go to sing
my final song
Hope you celebrate
and raise a toast
If you cry
they'll understand
for the man
who loved you
the most
