When You Come Around - Bryan White

You know what my daddy’s name is?

What is your daddy’s name?

His name is Love.

Well I’d like to say you’re the one I look up to

And all my life I’ve always tried to be like you

Your little man, your biggest fan

But then I’d just be wishin' for what I never had

A lovin' father instead of just a weekend dad

With liquor on his breath, and be scared to death

When you come around I’d like to see my daddy

And not some wild-eyed stranger

Who shows up once in a while

A soul that’s found all that he’s been missin'

And you finally turn that corner in your life

Each night I pray that people see the day

When you come around

And Lord knows we’d have a lot of catchin' up to do

'Cause there’s so many things I’d love to share with you

Maybe take a walk, a little time to talk

You could call us up and spend some time with your grandsons

Tell 'em stories, take 'em fishin' while they’re still young

We could finally be a real family

When you come around I’d like to see my daddy

And not some wild-eyed stranger

Who shows up once in a while

A soul that’s found that there’s still time for livin'

And you finally turn that corner in your life

Each night I pray that people see the day

When you come around

To have you in my life would be a dream come true

For me to say «I love you"and to hear you say it too

When you come around I’d like to see my daddy

And not some wild-eyed stranger

Who shows up once in a while

A soul that’s found all it takes to be forgiven

Is to finally turn that corner in your life

Oh I can’t wait to be standin' there that day

When you come around
