You gave me music
You gave me song
When I was weak
You made me strong
And I thank you
I just want to thank you
When I was hungry
You filled me up
When I was dry
You gave me your cup
And I thank you
I just want to thank you
You are my father, my teacher, my friend
And my love for you will never end
And I thank you
I just want to thank you
When I fell to the ground
You gave me your hand
You picked me up
And helped me to stand
And I thank you
I just want to thank you
In the cold night I know
I can knock on your door
And when I talk too much
You'll just listen some' more
And I thank you
I just want to thank you
You are my father, my teacher, my friend
And my love for you will never end
And I thank you
And father, I love you.
