Once upon a time, you were 25 Walking up the aisle, you made the promise of your life Blinked twice and you were 29 Singing lullabies, and I looked up at you for the first time Words fall short but I am sure There'll never be anyone like you, you're You're strong like your father even when you are scared When I was in trouble, you never left me there And you love like your mother, like there's nothing to lose You're an unsung hero, so I'll sing this song for you Woke up, I was 21, and I fell in love Remember how I told you that I'd Searched the world and I found the girl And oh, how she reminds me of you, you're Strong like your father even when you are scared When I was in trouble, you never left me there And you love like your mother, like there's nothing to lose You're an unsung hero, so I'll sing this song for you ♪ For all the times I fell down, you showed me how to stand And when we crossed the ocean, you were my safe place to land Been on a thousand stages, but when it's all said and done I hope I make you proud of, of the man that I've become To be strong like my father even when I am scared And when someone's in trouble, I'll never leave them there And I'll love like my mother, like there's nothing to lose You're my unsung hero, and I sing this song for you
