Hold Me My Daddy

Hold me my daddy

I never felt lower than dirt on the floor

I say hold me my daddy

I never felt like crying oceans before

If this means war, why are we in it?

Might've fired off a couple of rounds

I didn't mean to begin it

If these are the bullets

That every father and son must chew

Well then hold me my daddy

I forgot to say I love you

Hold me my daddy

It hurts me to see grow men fighting this way

I say hold me my daddy

The young and the old dog aren't having their day

This civil war, why are we in it?

There's nobody on this flat earth

Would ever want to win it

If these are the hot coals

That every father and son walks through

Well then hold me my daddy

I forgot to say I love you

And if you agree we can make amends

All this squabbling I've hated

In another time and another place where our history bends

We could've been the best of friends and not merely related

Well these are the right words to say

They're difficult but still true

Well then hold me my daddy

I forgot to say I love you

Hold him tight, hold him like he was a baby

Hold him tight, hold him like he was a baby

Hold him tight, hold him like he was a baby
