Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers - Father’s Day

The way she held my hand
And then gave me a faint little smile
Like she knew that I
Might be gone, gone for a while

And if you’re looking for advice, my dear
I have nothing to say
I am always at a loss for words
When you look at me that way
But the bruises keep the breaks at bay
On Father’s Day

And the flowers that did bloom
On the day that you were born
They’re like diamonds littering
All across all my shores

And if you’re looking for advice, my dear
I have nothing to say
I am always at a loss for words
When you look at me that way
But the bruises keep the breaks at bay
On Father’s Day

But you can make yourself better, better than me
You are more than just a product of your history
You’re like your Mom, little girl
And believe me that’s the best thing in the world

And I’m sorry for the things that get messed up
And they’ll be places that you may not get enough
And some memories that you wish you never had
But what won’t kill you makes you stronger
And you just tell them that you got that from your Dad

And if you’re looking for advice, my dear
I have nothing to say
I am always at a loss for words
When you look at me that way
And I’ll always, always love you
No matter what you do
When you’re growing up without me
I will always be with you
Must be something in the way that I was raised
And the bruises keep the breaks at bay
Yeah the bruises keep the breaks at bay
On Father’s Day
