Paroles
He was only just a young boy, trying to find his way,
In a world that wasn't gentle, with so much left to say.
School was never easy, the words just wouldn't stay,
And nobody could see the battles he was fighting every day.
At fifteen, he left the classroom, put his childhood on the shelf,
Started working for a living, had to fend for himself.
He took the words they threw at him, pretended they didn't hurt,
But some of the things they said stayed buried in his heart.
He never asked for much, just a chance to make things right,
Just a little bit of happiness after every endless fight.
And if that boy could see the man he'd be someday,
I wonder if he'd stop and cry at how far he'd come along the way.
🎵 Verse 2 — Mum
At twenty-one, he lost his mum, too young to say goodbye,
Too young to understand the ache that never really dies.
There were things he still needed her to teach him as he grew,
So many things he'd never get to tell her or do.
And somewhere in the silence, when the whole world went to sleep,
He carried all the memories that a son is left to keep.
He had to face tomorrow when his heart was somewhere gone,
And learn to live without the woman he'd been counting on.
I wonder if he thinks of her when the evening sun goes down,
When the sky turns red above the quiet Australian ground.
Does he wish that he could call her, just to hear her voice once more?
Just to feel like he was someone's little boy the way he was before?
🎵 Chorus — The heart of the song
Oh, Dad, if you could see yourself through our eyes tonight,
You'd see the man who kept us safe, who made our world feel right.
You'd see a heart that kept on loving, though life was cruel and cold,
A man who gave his family more than he could ever know.
You lost so much along the way, more than we can understand,
But you kept on building something beautiful with your own two hands.
And if the world had broken you, we'd never have known,
Because you turned your hurt into a place we could call home.
Oh, Dad, we wish you knew, through every high and low,
You're the reason we believe in love, more than you'll ever know.
🎵 Verse 3 — Starting over
Then love fell apart, and the life he'd planned was gone,
Two little girls still needed him, so he kept on carrying on.
He'd known what it meant to lose things he thought would always stay,
And now he had to find a different road to take each day.
He moved away and started over, with a heart that had been tried,
Carrying all the things he'd lost and all the things inside.
But somewhere in the distance, there was still a light ahead,
A chance to build a different life, a chance to dream again.
And love came back around him, a little softer this time,
A woman stood beside him, and they built a new life.
Then three more little girls came along and filled the house with sound,
And somehow all those broken pieces found a way to turn around.
🎵 Verse 4 — Five daughters
Now there are five little girls who know exactly where to go,
When life gets hard and nothing seems to work out as they hoped.
They find their dad, and somehow things don't feel so bad,
Because no matter what the world may do, they've always got their dad.
He's the one who cheers the loudest when they chase a dream,
The one who sees their potential when they don't know what it means.
He'll stand there in their corner, through the good and through the bad,
Giving them the kind of love he wishes every child had.
And maybe when they're laughing, he looks at them and sees
The life he never had himself, the childhood he wished to be.
Maybe every hug they give him heals a little hurt inside,
Maybe five little hearts have given him a reason to feel proud of the life he's tried to build.
🎵 Chorus — Bigger, with piano and strings
Oh, Dad, if you could see yourself through our eyes tonight,
You'd see the man who kept us safe, who made our world feel right.
You'd see a heart that kept on loving, though life was cruel and cold,
A man who gave his family more than he could ever know.
You lost your mum too early, you had to learn to stand,
You faced a thousand hard days with nothing but your hands.
But look at all the love around you, look at what you've grown,
Five daughters who would choose you every time, in every life, as home.
And if we could go back in time, we'd find that boy somehow,
The one who thought he wasn't enough, who's someone's hero now.
We'd tell him, "Keep on going, even when the road is long.
One day you'll have five girls who'll love you like a favourite song."
🎵 Bridge — Almost a whisper
And Dad, if there are nights you still miss your mum,
When you wish that you could tell her all the things you've become,
I hope you know she'd see the love in everything you do,
And all the little pieces of her living on in you.
I hope you'd tell that younger boy he didn't fail at life,
That leaving school at fifteen didn't mean he lost the fight.
That the people who made him feel small never knew his worth,
And that he built a life full of love right here on
In a world that wasn't gentle, with so much left to say.
School was never easy, the words just wouldn't stay,
And nobody could see the battles he was fighting every day.
At fifteen, he left the classroom, put his childhood on the shelf,
Started working for a living, had to fend for himself.
He took the words they threw at him, pretended they didn't hurt,
But some of the things they said stayed buried in his heart.
He never asked for much, just a chance to make things right,
Just a little bit of happiness after every endless fight.
And if that boy could see the man he'd be someday,
I wonder if he'd stop and cry at how far he'd come along the way.
