Streisand, Barbra - My Father's Song Lyrics






Whatever you are you're goin' to be
Whatever you are is all right with me
You're gonna be what you want anyway
These are the words I heard my father say
When I was a young girl
And shy of men
He said when you're ready
You'll know just when
And when I was taken and thrown away
There wasn't a reason to face the day
And so he said:

Whatever you are you're goin' to be
Whatever you are is all right with me
You're gonna be what you want anyway
These are the words I heard my father say

My father's song is clear and easy
And though he's gone he lives in my heart
When I go wrong I swear he sees me
And he smiles for a star, and he says:

Wherever you are I'm here by your side
My life is a rope that won't come untied
Oh, I'm gonna stand by you right or wrong
These are the words within my father's song
Uh..Oh...Ah...Mmm...Uh!
These are the words within my father's song

  7. A.... S....

    At 1:42 she sings My Father's Songggggggggggggggggggggggg  and that note is sublime. There are not enough superlatives to describe it and her....Her voice is a stradiavarius.

    creo que en realidad en ese momento dice es : "My Fhater´s souuuuuuul"

  8. P.... A....

    BS'a dad died when she was very young.....I read she never really got over it. Lost my dad due to heart failure when I was in my 20's and it was extremely hard......you never forget and never stop missing them.

  14. P.... k....

    Awesome pics with Rupert.

  15. b.... s....

    i hope you all know the man in these pictures is not barbra's father. Her father passed while she was still a baby!

  16. b.... ....

    What I don't really understand after almost 60 years of living; almost exactly 10 years younger than Barbra to the week is why there was ever and issue of "Getting your nose fixed." To begin with, her nose is no bigger than the average nose; and if it is not broke don't fix it. It is part of her true beauty. Who would you rather look at: A Kardashian.... No Thanks for me. Her face reflex the uniqueness and content of her being. There is no beauty so pure. She is the reflection of emotion.

  17. r.... ....

    I love this song. These are the words I wish my father said.... and this song helps me realize maybe he did, in his own way

  18. k.... ....

    TO ALL OUR FATHERS THAT HAVE PASSED ...HAPPY FATHERS DAY IN HEAVEN DAD

  19. m.... ....

    My father passed away 11 years ago next week. But eveytime I listen to this song, I feel like he is just sat down next to me. What an amazing song!

  20. R.... G....

    This song practically makes me cry, because even though my father is still alive, I've never had a good relationship with him.

  21. b.... ....

    I miss my father, who died suddenly four years ago. I now understand better, the meaning of loss. I sure wish this song, could in some way be ttransposed for a boy, and his father. I wonder how that might work out?

  22. L.... B....

    Bravo!!! Great song!

  23. U.... ....

    What a beautiful touching song!!!!!
