Story Behind the Song
I noticed that many father's these days simply don't seem to spend the right kind of time with their kids and I wanted to complain about that and sing how vital it is for a father to spend time with his son.
The song took a few days to write and was recorded in about 4 takes
Lyrics
Father, please talk to your son,
‘cos right now he needs you more than anyone.
And Father please play with your son,
‘cos one day soon he might just be a man.
And if you don’t know how to talk, well that’s ok,
‘cos maybe all he wants to do is play anyway.
And if you don’t know how to play, well that’s ok,
‘cos maybe, father, your son can teach you…
So Father, please pray for your son,
‘cos right now he needs your prayers more than anyone.
And Father please laugh with your son,
And one day soon he might just make a man.
And if you don’t know how to pray, well that’s ok,
I’m sure God doesn’t really care what you say.
And if you don’t know how to laugh, well that’s ok,
‘cos sometimes, Father, a smile will do.
