《He Didn’t Have to Be》歌词

[00:00:00] He Didn't Have To Be - Pickin' On Series

[00:00:10] When a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new

[00:00:16] It always winds up feeling more like a job interview

[00:00:22] My momma used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone

[00:00:27] Who wouldn't find out about me and then turn around and run

[00:00:34] I met the man I call my dad when I was five years old

[00:00:39] He took my mom out to a movie and for once I got to go

[00:00:45] A few months later I remember lying there in bed

[00:00:50] I overheard him pop the question and prayed that she'd say yes

[00:00:55] And then all of a sudden

[00:00:57] Oh it seemed so strange to me

[00:01:00] How we went from something's missing

[00:01:03] To a family

[00:01:07] Lookin' back all I can say

[00:01:09] About all the things he did for me

[00:01:17] Is I hope I'm at least half the dad

[00:01:21] That he didn't have to be

[00:01:33] I met the girl that's now my wife about three years ago

[00:01:38] We had the perfect marriage but we wanted somethin' more

[00:01:44] Now here I stand surrounded by my family and friends

[00:01:49] Crowded 'round the nursery window as they bring the baby in

[00:01:55] And then all of a sudden

[00:01:58] It seemed so strange to me

[00:02:01] How we've gone from something's missing

[00:02:03] To a family

[00:02:07] Lookin' through the glass I think about the man

[00:02:11] That's standin' next to me

[00:02:18] And I hope I'm at least half the dad

[00:02:21] That he didn't have to be

[00:02:45] Lookin' back all I can say

[00:02:47] About all the things he did for me

[00:02:55] Is I hope I'm at least half the dad

[00:02:59] That he didn't have to be

[00:03:03] Yes I hope I'm at least half the dad

[00:03:07] That he didn't have to be
