[Little Kid:] You know what my daddy's name is?
[Woman:] What is your daddy's name?
[Little Kid:] His name is Love.
Well I'd like to say you're the one I look up to
And all my life I've always tried to be like you
Your little man, your biggest fan
But then I'd just be wishin' for what I never had
A lovin' father instead of just a weekend dad
With liquor on his breath, and be scared to d**h
When you come around I'd like to see my daddy
And not some wild-eyed stranger
Who shows up once in a while
A soul that's found all that he's been missin'
And you finally turn that corner in your life
Each night I pray that people see the day
When you come around
And Lord knows we'd have a lot of catchin' up to do
'Cause there's so many things I'd love to share with you
Maybe take a walk, a little time to talk
You could call us up and spend some time with your grandsons
Tell 'em stories, take 'em fishin' while they're still young
We could finally be a real family
When you come around I'd like to see my daddy
And not some wild-eyed stranger
Who shows up once in a while
A soul that's found that there's still time for livin'
And you finally turn that corner in your life
Each night I pray that people see the day
When you come around
[Bridge:]
To have you in my life would be a dream come true
For me to say "I love you" and to hear you say it too
When you come around I'd like to see my daddy
And not some wild-eyed stranger
Who shows up once in a while
A soul that's found all it takes to be forgiven
Is to finally turn that corner in your life
Oh I can't wait to be standin' there that day
When you come around
