The words to the following song describe my life since I've become a father, and express my feelings on the kind of lives we should live and the effect we have on others....

CIRCLE MAKES A ROUND

Watching the baby grow--takes me back years ago

I was the small one then—my Dad was the proudest of men

It seemed an eternity—till I’d be as old as he

But life tricks you—the time pricks you—until you come around

The years scold you—then they hold you—‘til the circle makes a round

Sweet thoughts of yesterday—caused me to drift away

I saw her satin dress—and felt her first soft caress

Today we are family—will my boy be just like me?

‘Cause life tricks you—the time pricks you—until you come around

The years scold you—then they hold you—‘til the circle makes a round

(repeat last 2 lines)

I’ve seen the wild side—I’ve taken some scary rides

Been on the losin’ end—and made some unwanted friends

Will my boy have to go through—the same things his Dad had to?

‘Cause life tricks you—the time pricks you—until you come around

The years scold you—then they hold you—‘til the circle makes a round

(repeat last 2 lines)
