In this song, which Paul Simon dedicates to his daughter, a father expresses his love for his daughter. The opening lines of the songs says:

If you leap awake in the mirror of a bad dream

And for a fraction of a second you can't remember where you are

Just open your window and follow your memory upstream

To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star”.

The father in this song says no father loves his daughter as much as he loves his own. He even says that he has always been there for his daughter. You can certainly sing this song to your father to let him know, how much you appreciate for the things he has done for you. The song even earned an Academy Award nomination in the category of ‘Best Song’.

From father to son

Hear the word that I say

I fought with you

Fought on your side

Long before you were born

Joyful the sound

The word goes around

From father to son to son”.

He prays to God for sending back his father for his mother, so that she can have a dance with him. The beginning lines of the songs are, “Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence

My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then

Spin me around ‘til I fell asleep

Then up the stairs he would carry me

And I knew for sure I was loved.”

“Ships” by Ian Hunter

This soulful song, which has been composed by British singer, Ian Hunter, begins with lines; “We walked to the sea, just my father and me

And the dogs played around on the sand.

Winter cold cut the air, hanging still everywhere

Dressed in gray did he say hold my hand?

I said love’s easier when it’s far away

We sat and watched the distant lights.”

Considered as a thoughtful ode to father and son, you can sing this song as a tribute to your father.
