Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

I remember daddy's hands
folded silently in prayer,

And reaching out to hold me
when I had a nightmare.

You could read quite a story
in the calluses and lines.

Years of work and worry
had left their mark behind.

I remember daddy's hands,
how they held my mama tight,

And patted my back
for something done right.

There are things that I've forgotten
that I loved about the man,

But I'll always remember
the love in daddy's hands.

Daddy's hands were soft and kind
when I was crying.

Daddy's hands were hard as steel
when I'd done wrong.

Daddy's hands weren't always gentle
but I've come to understand,
there was always love in daddy's hands.

I remember daddy's hands
working till they bled,

Sacrificed unselfishly
just to keep us all fed.

If I could do things over,
I'd live my life again,

And never take for granted
the love in daddy's hands.

Daddy's hands were soft and kind
when I was crying.

Daddy's hands were hard as steel
when I'd done wrong.

Daddy's hands weren't always gentle
but I've come to understand,
there was always love in daddy's hands.

Daddy's hands were soft and kind
when I was crying.

Daddy's hands were hard as steel
when I'd done wrong.

Daddy's hands weren't always gentle
but I've come to understand,
there was always love in daddy's hands.
