Don't Shut The Door

Don't shut the door my son and lock yourself inside

I know you don't need my help, I know you have tried

You tried to give your best, and every single day

Fought your way through, to where you are today

But this is just the start; the path is long and tough

And maybe trying hard, isn't really enough

For dreams get shattered every day, not just one or two

The one who fights till the end, are the ones who get through

So come outside your room and let the fire ignite

You've waited long enough my son, now it’s time to fight

Shed a blood and bone and fill my heart with pride

Don't shut the door my son this time, don't lock yourself inside.

Talk to me son!

Dad:
"Talk to me son and sit with me
And tell me what is wrong
Talk to me son and tell your story
Tell me even if its long

Oh tell me why you talk to your phone
More than you talk to me
Tell me why you're in your room
And not outside with me

Tell me why you laugh and smile
When I'm off to work all day
Tell me why you weep and cry
Oh Just tell me all today

I know I couldn't give all the love
That you deserved as a kid
I know I should have cared for you
More than I ever did

But now I'm here to love you son
Love you from the start
And now I'm here to be your dad
And I love you from my heart

So take my hand and grab it tight
And rest your head in me
And close your eyes and tell me all
And tell me what you see!"

Son:
"Don't be sad you are my dad
I'm just a little weak
You never cared to ask me that
And now u want to speak

I love you lots and not my phone
I want you to be with me
I want you to hold my hand & play
I want your eyes to see

I weep and cry and I miss you dad
Coz I never see you near
I laugh and smile all day long
To hide my little fear

Fear that you won't listen to me
And my story that is not long
Just about the hug I need
To make good all what's wrong

For you have the money and family
But not the time we need
We want you to be with us dad
And we'll be with you indeed!

I love you dad and I always will
But I want you to be my dad
Not a person who comes to ask
What are the problems I had!

I want you to be my dad always
And not just for a day
You've always lived in my heart
And I want you to always stay!"

Dad:
"Oh I'm sorry son for all the time
I couldn't be your dad
But now I'll love you even more
Than all the love I had

I'll be your dad every day and
Not just for a while
Come to me son and give me a hug
and show me that hidden smile."
