I hear you have a soft spot For fools and little children And I'm glad 'Cause I've been both of those I shook my fist up toward the sky And at most of those who love me A frightened angry boy In grown-up clothes Chorus: But a father's eye Can always see right through And a father's heart Can tell when tears are true Now I'm standing on this road Your hand has brought me to Your faithful love will lead me Farther on Life sure has its choices You left those choices to me And I'm glad But sometimes I feel caught It's hard to know which bridge to cross And which bridge I should be burning I long to learn But I'm so slow at being taught Repeat Chorus
