I was a kid you were my dad
I didn't always understand
I wanted freedom you got mad
You were concerned I got upset

I didn't recognize you yet
And did you cry I know I did
When I lied to you
I didn't want to hurt you

I just never knew I did
You never told me that you loved me
I know you didn't know how
I guess that shows we're much the same

'Cause I love you too and until now
I've never said those words out loud
I hope you're proud
To be my dad

What are your secrets, do you pray
Is there a god that shows your way
I wish I knew
Do you have crazy fantasies

What happens in your dreams
I want to know
I guess you'll always be a mystery to me
But you taught me how to value life

And what else do I need
I have a dad who watches over me

    This is about a father and how you never really got along with them and clashed but you realize now he was just looking out for you. Also I think it's about not really knowing your parents as people or not making the effort to. You just take their lessons and punishments and grow up never really understanding where they're coming from.

More Featured Meanings

Light Up The Sky Van Halen The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it. Fast Car Tracy Chapman "Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time. Mental Istid Ebba Grön This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io Bron-Y-Aur Stomp Led Zeppelin This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping. Cajun Girl Little Feat Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
