Mama’s words could cut him, sometimes cause him pain, But daddy sat there quiet, steady as the rain. The hard times kept coming, but my daddy just worked He fixed my broken toys and made me better when I got hurt. I didn’t know what he was giving me back then, But now I see the love in that quiet man. The dreams Daddy had got left behind, But he never cursed a word, and I never saw him cry His hands were cracked and his jacket smelled like smoke, Daddy always held us close, but he almost never spoke. The hard times kept coming, but my daddy just worked He fixed the leaning fence and made me better when I got hurt. I didn’t know what he was giving me back then, But now I see the love in that quiet man. The house is quiet since he’s been gone, But the way he taught me to love carries on. He showed me that strength doesn’t have to shout, My daddy taught me what real love’s all about. The hard times kept coming, but my daddy just worked He fixed my life and made me better without saying a word. I didn’t know what he was giving me back then, But now I see the love in that quiet man. Lyrics written by Josh Durey Music and singer created with AI tools.
