Cannot Be Denied

Sunday football all alone
Interrupted by the phone
A familiar voice could it be?
Asking is it really me

She went on to say
Do you remember the day?
New Year’s Eve 2002
When I spent the night with you

He's 14 now, and almost grown
I think it’s time to let him know
He’s been asking for sometime
Who is this dad of mine

My doubtful mind wanted to deny
Must be some mistake, the kid can't be mine
With just one look my mind was blown
All my doubt was gone

We agreed we would meet
At the cafe down the street
Showed up early, took a seat
Anticipating the kid, I would meet

Minutes passed… eternity
Wondering what he’d think of me
Do I shake his hand or give a hug?
After all he is my flesh and blood

He walked in, caught my eye
Held my breath, tried not to cry
Couldn’t help but recognize
My soul deep in his eyes

My doubtful mind wanted to deny
Must be some mistake, the kid can't be mine
With just one look my mind was blown
All my doubt was gone

Piece of me missing for so long
What I feel now is growing strong
It’s right there in his eyes
The kid cannot be denied

Sunday football on TV
My son sitting next to me
It’s right there in his eyes
The kid cannot be denied

It’s so plain to see, the kid belongs to me
Now I know the reason why, the kid cannot be denied
I saw my soul with just one look, into his eyes is all it took
It’s right there in his eyes, the kid cannot be denied
