Okay, this is important
Potentially the most important phone call of my life
Calm down, Ami. It's only a phone call
With your dad. Like thousands you've had before
Except that this one might just give him a heart attack!
You don't know that! Give it a try
Like Ben said, what's the worst that could happen?
Absolute carnage and heartbreak
Daddy, I met this boy
And I think you'll like him
Someone you might warm to at the very least
Daddy, I know it's fast
And you'll think I'm crazy
But I'm not saying book the church or find a priest
There's just something new about this boy
Filling up my senses
With a joy I've never known
And he's shown me wonderful things. You can do it Ami
Stay calm and you'll get through it, Ami. It's just a phone call
Except he'd have hung up by now! Why is this so difficult?
Just tell him what's on your mind!
Daddy, I know this boy would you like to meet him?
Saturday is best if you have time to spare
Daddy, I know this place
We can have a picnic
It would mean the world if you could both be there
I wish you knew exactly how I feel
To spend my time with someone
Who can steal my heart away
It's cliché but daddy it's true
This would ease him, Ami
The news would please him, Ami, so make the phone call
What are you afraid of, Ami? Why are you so scared?
Take a breath, I'm sure he'd understand
After all, when he met mum
They both just ran away
He didn't let his parents have a say
How is this different, daddy?
Oh, and he's an artist, daddy!
It never worked out with those boys from before
They were fixated on work and were kind of a bore
So he's covered in paint and he's never on time?
He struggles for work? Well that's totally fine
If this perfectly passionate man is perfectly mine
All mine
And now there's nothing but him
Nothing but me, happy
Daddy, I met this boy
That's all that matters
Whether he's who you'd choose won't change a single thing
Daddy, I'm like a bird
Freed from its caging
Soaring high above the clouds with open wings
I love him, daddy!
And that's all I need to say
Daddy? It's me
