[Verse 1] Dear papa'z, aka dad I love you I know you weren't there When I was a baby Or child But I still call you papa'z Even if we are not blood I still reach for your name [Pre-Chorus] We were just friends Still you stayed in my heart Not by blood But you left your mark And it hurts In the quiet of night I learned your love By the way you tried [Chorus] Papa'z, papa'z You’re still my papa'z Papa'z, papa'z Even when it scars Not blood, but mine Not blood, but mine Papa'z, papa'z You’re still my papa'z [Verse 2] I kept your smile Like a light in my room When the days got hard I would think of you No first steps held No childhood hand in hand Still I made a place Where your name could stand [Pre-Chorus] We were just friends Still you stayed in my heart Not by blood But you left your mark And it hurts In the quiet of night I learned your love By the way you tried [Chorus] Papa'z, papa'z You’re still my papa'z Papa'z, papa'z Even when it scars Not blood, but mine Not blood, but mine Papa'z, papa'z You’re still my papa'z [Bridge] If I could rewrite time I’d give you my little girl days But life drew lines That we could never change So I hold on To the part that is true You may not be blood But I was loved by you [Chorus] Papa'z, papa'z You’re still my papa'z Papa'z, papa'z Even when it scars Not blood, but mine Not blood, but mine Papa'z, papa'z You’re still my papa'z
