Son, your father's not all good

But still, I love you more than I thought I could

And when the menace in my mind

Finds me, I simply look to your eyes

And boy, someday I hope I do

See the man you will grow into

And when your heart's in disarray

Know that your father, too, has made mistakes

Son, your father's lost his head

Still, I mean every word that I've said

Though, the truth can truly cut

Here in this confessional, with my blood

And boy, someday I hope I do

See the man you will grow into

And when your heart's in disarray

Know that your father, too, has made... mistakes

I've been cruel to the ones who have stayed by my side

And foolish enough to believe in my pride

But vanity never could keep me from caring for you

I've strayed too far away from the trees and the lake -

The innocent road that I chose not to take -

But still, I can bring you to bathe in the river;

To wash out the world long before your arms wither away

And boy, someday I hope I do

See the man you will grow into

And when your heart's in disarray

Know that your father, too, has made...

He's made mistakes
