Look At Us Now Dad

I didn't know the things you knew then She locked herself away to die I’ll never know the things you've seen A little boy, so scared and not allowed to cry [Pre-Chorus] Mama with a bottle in her hand Daddy with a post-war muddle I don't wanna see you struggle no more Oh, and I know you’re my daddy I know you're mine, I wanna be kind to you Trouble wasn't subtle back then It's the belt or it's the beer bottle But I don't wanna see you struggle no more Call me on satellite You know I got time, time [Chorus] I wanna be kind to you You know that I try for you I wanna make time, you know that I try I always got time for you [Verse 2] We'll never know why we stumbled so low I locked myself away to die Never alone, but callouses on fingers and all toes What was theirs is yours, and now it's mine [Chorus] (I wanna be kind) I wanna be kind to you You know that I try for you I wanna make time, you know that I try I always got time for you I wanna be kind to you You know that I try for you I wanna make time, you know that I try I always got time for you [Bridge] Look at me now, Dad Do you see we got out, Dad? Was sick and I’m well, Dad What a wonderful life we have You were a sad boy, Dad Drinking too many tins, Dad You read all the things and found love, Dad You found love, Dad Well, look at us now (Look at us now, Dad) Still driving us all mad We know you love attention (Look at us now, Dad) That flicker in your eye, Dad Why you wanna cause friction? (Look at us now, Dad) You’re out the door before we can tell you to be, Dad You really drive us all mad, Dad You really drive us up the wall, Dad You really drive us all mad [Chorus] I wanna be kind to you You know that I try for you I wanna make time, you know that I try I always got time for you I wanna be kind to you You know that I try for you I wanna make time, you know that I try I always got time for you (Time for you) [Outro] Look at me now, Dad (Look at us now, Dad) I look at you now, Dad (Look at us now, Dad) Well, look at us now, Dad (Look at us now, Dad) On top of the world, Dad (Look at us now, Dad) Look at me now, Dad (Look at us now, Dad) I look at you now, Dad (Look at us now, Dad) Well, look at us now, Dad (Look at us now, Dad) Look at us now, Dad Look at us now, Dad
