He can't remember The times that he thought Does my daddy love Probably not That didn't stop him From wishing that he did Didn't keep him from wanting Or worshipping him
He guesses he saw him About once a year He could still feel way he felt Standing in tears Stretching his arms out As as they'd go Whispering daddy I want you to know
[Chorus:] I love you this much And i'm waiting on you To make up your mind Do you love me too? ever long it takes I'm never giving up no matter what I love you this much
He grew to hate him for what he had done what kind of father Could do that to his son? He said 'damn you daddy' The day that he died The man didn't blink But the little boy cried
[Chorus:] I love you this much And i'm waiting on you To make up your mind Do you love me How ever long it takes I'm never giving up no matter what I love you this much
Half way the service While the choir sang a hymn He looked up above the preacher And he sat and stared at him
He said 'forgive father' When he realized That he hadn't been unloved Or alone all his life His arms were stretched out As as they'd go Nailed to the cross For the whole world to know
[Chorus:] I love you this much And i'm waiting you To make up your mind Do you love me too? How ever long it takes I'm never giving up no matter what I love you this much
