"Mom"
( Peach's Daughter )
"He Didn't Have To Be"
When a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new,
It always winds up feeling more like a job interview.
My Momma used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone,
Who wouldn't find out about me and then turn around and run.

I met the man I call my dad when I was five years old.
He took my mom out to a movie and for once I got to go.
A few months later I remember lying there in bed,
I overheard him pop the question and I prayed that she'd say yes.
|
And then all of a sudden,
Oh, it seemed so strange to me.
How we went from something's missing,
To a family.
Lookin' back all I can say,
About all the things he did for me.
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad,
That he didn't have to be.
I met the girl that's now my wife about three years ago.
We had the perfect marriage but we wanted somethin' more.
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends.
Crowded 'round the nursery window as they bring the baby in.

she and Dennis lost on June 1, 2001
And now all of a sudden,
It seemed so strange to me.
How we've gone from something's missing,
To a family.
Lookin' through the glass I think about the man,
That's standin' next to me.
And I hope I'm at least half the dad,
That he didn't have to be.
Lookin' back all I can say,
About all the things he did for me.
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad,
That he didn't have to be.
Yeah, I hope I'm at least half the dad,
That he didn't have to be.
Because he didn't have to be.
You know he didn't have to be.
