Just Like You

It's just like you to take the harder road 
To make our house a home 
To make sure I never felt alone 
It's just like you to see the best in me 
To make me believe that I could do anything 
And you never let a day go by 
without taking the time 
to show me how much you loved me 

Thank you, thank you for the very best you had 
For always understanding 
Thank you not just for what you said 
But it's the way you lived that makes me want to be 
Just like you 

It's just like you to fall down on your knees 
Crying father won't you please 
Take my little boy and make him so much more 
Than I could ever be 
Won't you teach him to look to you for all you'll ever need 
And be just like you, just like you 

Chorus 

All I desire 
is to follow in your footsteps for the rest of my life 
so one day when I have a son of my own 
I pray that he will see in me all I see in you 
And I'll hear him say 

Chorus
