Lyrics

Born on a war summer's day I was high on a cloud
So brave and so bold I can not remember feeling so proud
I wanted you to know that you could always have the faith in me to do
Anything it takes to show you that I will always be there for you
Be there for you

(Chorus)
I Promise you
You'll always have a place to call home
I Promise You
You'll never have to feel all alone
I Promise you
My love will never fade
I Promise You
And no one take that away

Boys are born onery and not to be exempt from the rule
Your testing my patience when you do the things I asked you not to do
But just because I scolded you don't ever think I don't care
A fathers love is sacred, know that I will always be there

(Chorus)
(Chorus)
