Alec Benjamin – Just Like You lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I was younger
I would argue with my dad
Tell him that I hated him when I was talking back
Blocked his number
Can't believe that I did that, no I didn't have a reason, wish that I could take it back
But as the years went by he was always by my side to wipe all of the tears I cried

[Chorus]
Now that I'm older
Realize that my father
Was doing the best he could do
Told him "one day I'll have a son or daughter
And when I'm a father too
I hope that I am just like you"

[Verse 2]
Now I realize
That he had troubles of his own
How could I be so selfish, oh how could I block his phone?
I remember when my father lost his job
He held our home together for the family he was strong
But as the years went by he was always by my side to wipe all of the tears I cried

[Chorus]
Now that I'm older
Realize that my father
Was doing the best he could do
Told him "one day I'll have a son or daughter
And when I'm a father too
I hope that I am just like you"
