lyrics

Every time I stop and take a look around
Everything’s just moving too fast
When nothing I do seems to make any difference
Wanna know why I bother

When I look in your eyes doesn’t matter that I’m lonely
When I see your face all my failures fall away
I’m just driving you to school but you think I’m so cool
Just a little boy’s father

When I’m Bobby’s Dad
I’m a freakin’ superhero
I’m the man with a plan
I can make you fly
I’m Bobby’s Dad
I know why I am here
So I can see you when you smile

You’re a crazy kid but I love you anyway
Even when you kick your brother’s knee
And I don’t understand half of what you gotta say
But I love it when you say it

Every picture you draw is a little masterpiece and when you
Sing off-key it’s like Handel in my ears
If you wanna play a game, doesn’t matter how lame
Kid you know I’m gonna play it

When I’m Bobby’s Dad
I’m a freakin’ superhero
I’m the man with a plan
I can make you fly
I’m Bobby’s Dad
I know why I am here
So I can see you when you smile

There’s a part of my heart
That lives for being with you
And I know that I sometimes
Let you down
But I’ve come so far
And I never wanna miss you
Gonna hold you while you’re
Still around

So there~

I know that one day you’ll be grown and gone away
I know you’re gonna make me proud
I know every time you say that you wish I’d go away
It’s already forgiven

You’re a beautiful boy and you helped make me a man
And when you be a man too I’mma help you find the way
Your name may be plain, but goddammit you’re a Cain
And we’re never gonna give in

When I’m Bobby’s Dad
I’m a freakin’ superhero
I’m the man with a plan
I can make you fly
I’m Bobby’s Dad
I know why I am here
So I can see you when you smile
