Somebody kind

I can’t believe the man that lost his wife listens to me cry About my homework and my lack of time He gives me the same advice as he has done a hundred million times And strokes my cheek as he says: “It’s alright”

When will I find somebody kind just like my dad? Someone who tells me to take one day at a time There’s never been a boy I’ve trusted with this fragile heart of mine But he just needs to be kind like my dad

He doesn’t worry ‘bout me He says everything will work out fine That gives me sense of hope in my own mind I worry I will not become as brave as he taught me to be He says no matter what, he will still love me

When will I find somebody kind just like my dad? Someone who tells me to take one day at a time There’s never been a boy I’ve trusted with this fragile heart of mine But he just needs to be kind like my dad

Is this too much to ask for? Is this a fantasy? That I will meet a guy who’s just As lovely and safe as he

When will I find somebody kind just like my dad? Someone who tells me to take one day at a time There’s never been a boy I’ve trusted with this fragile heart of mine But he just needs to be kind Oh, he just needs to be kind Yes, he just needs to be kind Like my dad
