He Didn't Have to Be
Kelley Lovelace, Brad Paisley
When a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new
It always winds up feeling more like a job interview
My mama used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone
Who wouldn't find out about me and then turn around and run
I met the man I call my dad when I was five years old
He took my mom out to a movie and for once I got to go
A few months later I remember lying there in bed
I overheard him pop the question and I prayed that she'd say yes
And then all of a sudden, ah, it seemed so strange to me
How we went from something's missing to a family
Lookin' back all I can say about all the things he did for me
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
I met the girl that's now my wife 'bout three years ago
We had the perfect marriage but we wanted somethin' more
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends
Crowded 'round the nursery window as they bring the baby in
And now all of a sudden, ah, it seemed so strange to me
How we had gone from something's missing to a family
Lookin' through the glass I think about the man that's standing next to me
And I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
And lookin' back all I can say about all the things he did for me
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
Yeah, I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
Because he didn't have to be
You know he didn't have to be
When a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new
Quando una mamma single esce con qualcuno di nuovo
It always winds up feeling more like a job interview
Finisce sempre per sembrare più un colloquio di lavoro
My mama used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone
Mia mamma si chiedeva se avrebbe mai incontrato qualcuno
Who wouldn't find out about me and then turn around and run
Che non scoprisse di me e poi si girasse e scappasse
I met the man I call my dad when I was five years old
Ho incontrato l'uomo che chiamo mio padre quando avevo cinque anni
He took my mom out to a movie and for once I got to go
Ha portato mia mamma al cinema e per una volta ho potuto andare
A few months later I remember lying there in bed
Qualche mese dopo mi ricordo di essere sdraiato lì nel letto
I overheard him pop the question and I prayed that she'd say yes
Ho sentito lui fare la proposta e ho pregato che lei dicesse di sì
And then all of a sudden, ah, it seemed so strange to me
E poi all'improvviso, ah, mi sembrava così strano
How we went from something's missing to a family
Come siamo passati da qualcosa che mancava a una famiglia
Lookin' back all I can say about all the things he did for me
Guardando indietro tutto quello che posso dire su tutte le cose che ha fatto per me
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
Spero di essere almeno la metà del padre che non doveva essere
I met the girl that's now my wife 'bout three years ago
Ho incontrato la ragazza che ora è mia moglie circa tre anni fa
We had the perfect marriage but we wanted somethin' more
Avevamo il matrimonio perfetto ma volevamo qualcosa di più
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends
Ora eccomi qui circondato dalla nostra famiglia e amici
Crowded 'round the nursery window as they bring the baby in
Affollati attorno alla finestra della nursery mentre portano il bambino
And now all of a sudden, ah, it seemed so strange to me
E ora all'improvviso, ah, mi sembrava così strano
How we had gone from something's missing to a family
Come eravamo passati da qualcosa che mancava a una famiglia
Lookin' through the glass I think about the man that's standing next to me
Guardando attraverso il vetro penso all'uomo che sta accanto a me
And I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
E spero di essere almeno la metà del padre che non doveva essere
And lookin' back all I can say about all the things he did for me
E guardando indietro tutto quello che posso dire su tutte le cose che ha fatto per me
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
Spero di essere almeno la metà del padre che non doveva essere
Yeah, I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
Sì, spero di essere almeno la metà del padre che non doveva essere
Because he didn't have to be
Perché non doveva essere
You know he didn't have to be
Sai, non doveva essere
