Twelve-hours shifts were shifts of dreams
Twenty hours and sometimes more it seemed
You lived your lifetime in just one day
A years' work with just a week of pay
Never once did I see you down
You kept it away from us
Tired to the bone and doing the rounds
Still you'd play with us
You're the man of steel that I look up to
Superman doesn't come close
The sky was heavy but still you always
Shone through
To light up the path, that I choose.
Jet-black hair is now a shade of gray
Every wrinkle tells a story of hard fought days
I'm in a debt that I can never repay
Because of you I am the man I am today
It's hard to come out and say how I feel

I'll say it anyway
Words can't describe what you mean to me
Your cool , your everything I wanna be.
You're the man of steel that I look up to
Superman doesn't come close
The sky was heavy but still you always
Shone through
To light up the path , that I choose. x2
