Did I prove to you That I'll be ever true to you? Daddy Are you proud of me? Have I become the child That you hoped that I would be? VERSE TWO Right then I understood the meaning of honor It took me all these years of being a father All of the sudden there was something bothering me Picked up the phone and dialed my childhood line His elder voice told me he's been doing just fine And then I broke down on the phone and started crying CHORUS Daddy Did I honor you? Did I prove to you That I'll be ever true to you? Daddy Are you proud of me? Have I become the man That you prayed that I would be? VERSE THREE It wasn't long until my daddy fell ill Cards and flowers on the windowsill Doctor told us we may have until Fathers Day. We rushed the grandkids all out of the room Cause we all knew it would be very soon I won't forget when daddy reached out his hand and with his last breath he said... CHORUS Daddy Did I honor you? Did I prove to you That I'll be ever true to you? Daddy Are you proud of me? Did I live the life That was pleasing unto thee?
