MAMA GIVES BIRTH
TO A LITTLE CHILD
DADDY WAITS
WITH A PATIENT SMILE
THEY TELL HIM
WHAT HE'S BROUGHT
INTO THE WORLD
THEY ALL CAN TELL
SHE'LL BE DADDY'S GIRL
HE HEARS A VOICE
AS SHE STARTS TO CRY
HE LOOKS
THROUGH THE WINDOW
AND TEARS
FALL FROM HIS EYES
OVERWHELMED
WITH THE THOUGHTS
OF THE DAY
HE SWEARS HE
HEARS HER SAY
DADDY CAN YOU SEE ME
DADDY CAN YOU HEAR
THE WORDS I SAY
I'VE GOT YOUR HANDS
YOUR EYES
AND YOUR HAIR
AND THIS LITTLE THING
YOU CALL A TEDDY BEAR
I'LL DO WHAT I CAN
TO MAKE YOU PROUD
DADDY CAN YOU
SEE ME NOW
HE TAKES ME FISHIN'
LIKE I'M
ONE OF THE GUYS
NO ONE CAN BREAK
THESE TIES THAT BIND
WE'VE GOT A BOND
THAT'S PRECIOUS
AND DEAR
AND IT'S STAYED
THE SAME THROUGH
ALL THESE YEARS
AS I GET OLDER
AND TIME GOES BY
HE'S GOT A SHOULDER
IF I NEED TO CRY
AND WHEN I THINK THAT
I'M DOIN' OK
I RUN TO HIM AND SAY
DADDY CAN YOU SEE ME
DADDY CAN YOU HEAR
THE WORDS I SAY
I'VE GOT YOUR HANDS
YOUR EYES
AND YOUR HAIR
AND I STILL HOLD ON
TO MY TEDDY BEAR
I'LL DO ALL I CAN
TO MAKE YOU PROUD
DADDY CAN YOU
SEE ME NOW
I LOOK TO THE HEAVENS
FOR SOME KIND OF SIGN
FOR YOU TO TELL ME
THAT I'M DOIN' FINE
AND EVERY NIGHT
WHEN I KNEEL DOWN
TO PRAY
I WONDER IF YOU
HEAR ME SAY
DADDY CAN YOU SEE ME
DADDY CAN YOU HEAR
THE WORDS I SAY
MY LIFE HAS CHANGED
SINCE YOU WENT AWAY
AND I NEED TO KNOW
IF I'M DOIN' OK
I'VE DONE ALL I CAN
TO MAKE YOU PROUD
DADDY CAN YOU
SEE ME NOW
WOH I'VE DONE ALL I CAN
TO MAKE YOU PROUD
DADDY CAN YOU
SEE ME NOW
