When You Come Around

(アルバム： Dustbowl Dreams - 2009)

[Little Kid:] You know what my daddy's name is?
[Woman:] What is your daddy's name?
[Little Kid:] His name is Love.

Well I'd like to say you're the one I look up to
And all my life I've always tried to be like you
Your little man, your biggest fan
But then I'd just be wishing for what I never had
A loving father instead of just a weekend dad
With liquor on his breath, and be scared to death

When you come around I'd like to see my daddy
And not some wild-eyed stranger
Who shows up once in a while
A soul that's found all that he's been missing
And you finally turn that corner in your life
Each night I pray that people see the day
When you come around

And Lord knows we'd have a lot of catching up to do
'Cause there's so many things I'd love to share with you
Maybe take a walk, a little time to talk
You could call us up and spend some time with your grandsons
Tell 'em stories, take 'em fishing while they're still young
We could finally be a real family

When you come around I'd like to see my daddy
And not some wild-eyed stranger
Who shows up once in a while
A soul that's found that there's still time for living
And you finally turn that corner in your life
Each night I pray that people see the day
When you come around

[Bridge:]
To have you in my life would be a dream come true
For me to say "I love you" and to hear you say it too

When you come around I'd like to see my daddy
And not some wild-eyed stranger
Who shows up once in a while
A soul that's found all it takes to be forgiven
Is to finally turn that corner in your life
Oh I can't wait to be standing there that day
When you come around
