Olivia and Elliot are in the hospital getting ready to welcome there baby into the world.
Olivia:
When
a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new
It always winds
up feeling more like a job interview
My momma used to wonder if
she'd ever meet someone
Who wouldn't find out about me and then
turn around and run
Elliot:
I
met the man I call my dad when I was five years old
He took my mom
out to a movie and for once I got to go
A few months later I
remember lying there in bed
I overheard him pop the question and
prayed that she'd say yes
And then all of a sudden
Oh, it
seemed so strange to me
How we went from something's missing
To
a family
Lookin' back all I can say
About all the things he did
for me
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad
That he didn't have
to be
Elliot looked at Olivia and kissed her forehead.
I
met the girl that's now my wife about three years ago
We had the
perfect marriage but we wanted somethin' more
Now here I stand
surrounded by our family and friends
Crowded 'round the nursery
window as they bring the baby in
After the baby is born Elliot and Don are standing outside the nursery window as they bring the baby in. He looks over at Don with a tear in his eye and they hug.
And now all of a sudden
It
seemed so strange to me
How we've gone from something's missing
To
a family
Lookin' through the glass I think about the man
That's
standin' next to me
And I hope I'm at least half the dad
That
he didn't have to be
Lookin' back all I can say
About all
the things he did for me
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad
That
he didn't have to be
Yeah, I hope I'm at least half the
dad
That he didn't have to be
Because he didn't have to be
You
know he didn't have to be
