        A song for my dad
       
      
    
    
    
                  
        Please help me.. I really need help.. I want to dedicate a song for my dad.. im here in the philippines and he's in the US.. im planning the "SONG FOR MY DAD" by Keith Urban.here's the lyrics..  
 
 
 
Lately I've been noticing 
I say the same things he used to say 
And I even find myself acting the very same way 
I tap my fingers on the table 
To the rhythm in my soul 
And I jingle the car keys 
When I'm ready to go 
When I look in the mirror 
He's right there in my eyes 
Starin' back at me and I realize 
 
The older I getThe more I can see 
How much he loved my mother and my brother and me 
And he did the best that he could 
And I only hope when I have my own family 
That everyday I see 
A little more of my father in me 
 
There were times I thought he was bein' 
Just a little bit hard on me 
But now I understand he was makin' me 
Become the man he knew that I could be 
In everything he ever did 
He always did with love 
And I'm proud today to say I'm his son 
When somebody says I hope I get to meet your dad 
I just smile and say you already have 
 
The older I get 
The more I can see 
How much he loved my mother and my brother and me 
And he did the best that he could 
And I only hope when I have my own family 
That everyday I see 
A little more of my father in me 
 
He's in my eyes 
My heart, my soul 
My hands, my pride 
And when I feel alone 
 
And I think I can't go on 
I hear him sayin' "Son you'll be alright" 
Everything's going to be all right" 
Yes it is 
 
The older I get 
The more I can see 
That he loved my mother and my brother and me 
And he did the best that he could 
And I only hope when I have my own family 
That everyday I see 
Oh I hope I see 
I hope everyday I see 
A little more of my father in me 
 
A little more of my father in me 
I hope everyday I see in me 
In me 
In me 
I hope everyday I see 
 
A little more of my father in me 
 
 
 
.."I hope everyday I see a little more of my father in me".. what does it mean? Does this song means that my father is dead? Any more song suggestions? Please help me.. thanks..

The only thing that makes it look like the father could be dead is the past tense... like looked, used to say,  
 
But basically the song is saying how the son is proud to be coming more and more like his father through the years.

Hi, reyzorback! 
 
If you would actually like to write a song to your dad using your own lyrics from your own heart, I can show you how to put them to music.  You would need to put it in the Writing forum area though. 
 
Thanks!

hey reyzorback, 
 
i think its only saying "my dad is dead" if the lyrics said: he was, he said, and more past tense verbs. to me the song says: everyday i look more and more like my father who is very special and im proud to be like him.
