I finished this last night. I won't go into details as I think the lyrics are clear enough. Very basic recording with me playing guitars and keys. All vocals are me, old school, no vocal processors or harmonizers.

Verse 1

I held you in my arms

Right before your Momma did.

I knew that you were special

I did everything to keep you from harm.

Chorus

I’LL BE THERE FOR YOU

WHEN YOU’RE SAD OR FEELING BLUE

THROUGH THE YEARS AS YOU GREW AND GREW

I WAS THERE. CAUSE THAT WHAT DADS DO

Verse 2

Many times I stood in the dark

As you wandered through your life

I chimed in when you asked me to

Held back tears when you gave up being a wife

Repeat Chorus

Bridge


If I could take away all your pain

Bring you sun when it’s pouring rain

Give you hope and fight your fears

Hold you close and dry your tears

Key Change : Repeat Chorus
