Jellyfish - The Man I Used to BeLyrics

I was your daddy once Wearing a sailor cap and dirty nails To you I'm just a picture on your mother's mantlepiece Who chose to fight the good fight in time to fail into battle And in your shadow Your daddy loves you still Yes I do I never thought it'd be so hard to see you grow so fast And turn into the man I used to be But I hope you have more sense than I in matters such as these Medals don't mean shit when a family is lost at sea I save every moment I've reached out and almost touched you But they all fade away must be a bad memory
