One of my all time favorites.

I went back and looked at the lyrics to my original suggestion again... I retract my submission

Better choices would be the ones that have positive meaning. Father of Mine and Papa Was... bring to mind absent fathers lol.

(But I appreciate all of the suggestions. Big help!)

"Father To Son" from Queen II

Good song basically about not understanding the wisdom of parental advice till one reaches that age.

The Dear Hunter - The Light

quote:

Son, your father’s not all good.
Still, I love you more than I thought I could.
And when the menace in my mind finds me, I simply look to your eyes.

And, boy, someday I hope I do see the man you will grow into.
And when you heart’s in disarray, know that your father too has made mistakes.

Son, your fathers lost his head.
Still, I mean every word that I’ve said.
Even though the truth can truly cut, here in this confessional with my blood.

Boy, someday I hope I do See the man you will grow into.
And when you heart’s in disarray, know that your father too has made mistakes.

I’ve been cruel to the ones who have stayed by my side,
and foolish enough to believe in my pride,
but vanity never could keep me from caring for you.

I’ve strayed too far away from the trees and the lake; the innocent road that I choose not to take.
But still, I can bring you to bathe in the river;
to wash out the world long before your heart’s withered away.
Boy, someday I hope I do see the man you will grow into. And when you heart’s in disarray, know that your father too has made mistakes.
