LYRICS
(a) I wrote a song for my father in hopes it would give him a thrill
After Seeing Brazil
(A) My father’s music came through never got to me until
I went to Brazil
(B) In Rio All Day Long, I heard my father’s song,
A bossa-nova beat, So sweet
(A) I heard a real bossa-nova and never got over the thrill
When I went to Brazil
(A) No other people you’ll meet play guitars with a beat & a thrill
As they do in Brazil
(AS PREVIOUS B)
(A) If there was ever a man Who was generous, gracious & good, That was my
dad
(A) The man a human being so true he could live like a king 'Cause he knew
The real pleasure in life
(B) To be devoted to & always stand by me
So I'd be unafraid and free
(A) this little song for my father does things that no other can do
As I sing it to you
(A) It has a rhythm & rhyme That will fasten his memory In time
As his beauty shines through
(B) For through my mind & soul My heart will always hold
A special place for him, It's true
(A) We bow our heads & we pray Every day's Father's Day
Let's review, All that he means to you
(A) Our mother's love is real nice But old Dad sacrificed
For us too Let us give him his due
(B) We're very proud to be In his biography
(Full 32 bar form for lyrics)
(A1) Now, out of the night, New as the dawn, into the light
(A2) [Oh] this child, innocent child, Soft as a fawn, this child is born
(A3) [1 small] heart, 1 pair of eyes, 1 work of art, Here in my arms
(A4) Here he lies, Trusting & warm, Blessed this bond, a child is born
