Lyrics

Daddy called to tell me that he’s proud of me and what I’m doing
I never have to try very hard
He’s just waking up with coffee getting on his phone to see what
everybody’s up to how they are
He’s listening to music in the background of his room
He says darlin I will let you go but glad that I got through and

Anyway I love you honey
Anyway you make me proud and anyway I hope you’re doing fine
Anyway I miss you darlin please be good and don’t you worry
Everything will get better with time
Anyway I love you
I love you anyway

Daddy raised us in New York City
Walking through the streets he kept me and my brother safe under his arm

Mama held it all together dad did what he was told for the better
We always knew that love was never far
He says hello Em it’s me again how did the day go?
Should I come and visit soon won’t you let me know and

Anyway I love you honey
Anyway you make me proud and anyway I hope you’re doing fine
Anyway I miss you darlin please be good and don’t you worry
Everything will get better with time
Anyway I love you
I love you anyway

I’m so happy knowing that he’s still around and I
Sometimes forget to call him sometimes when I’m down but he
Never expects a thing he’s always so forgiving and he knows
Sometimes I’ve got to go
that’s when I say

Anyway I love you daddy
Hope you’re feeling good today and everything is going your way
Anyway I’m yours forever
Look both ways never say never
Anyway I love you
Anyway I love you anyway

I heard this twice, once when you opened for Jacob collier in Cincinnati and then again the next week in Cleveland. It made me bawl both times. Thank you so much for putting this out today. I was able to send it to my dad and I want to record a cover of it for him as well. Thank you for making beautiful meaningful music. You’re a beautiful soul.
