Most parents would love to sing a lullaby to their children to tuck them to sleep.
We sing them a song that would make them sleepy so we can have our much-needed and awaited quiet time. But sometimes, we want to spend a few moments with them.
We entertain them and make them laugh – adorable moments with them that we want to engrave in our memories. After all, they wouldn’t be this young forever.
Actor and father Dan Fowlks shared this wonderful moment with her daughter.
The rockstar he is was all dressed up from his date with his wife when he entered the room. On the bed was their (then) ten-month-old daughter, happy to see daddy home.
As his wife drove the nanny home, he spent this time singing a little ditty to her daughter.
Dan has always been musically talented.
He grabbed the ukulele, captured this precious moment as he strummed the strings, and started belting out to Bobby Darin’s “Dream Lover.”
The song was a classic rock n’ roll hit released in 1959.
It talks about a guy praying for a dream lover to come his way. It may not be a father-daughter song, but Bobby’s way of describing his “dream lover” could be something a father would hope to hear about his daughter one day. As the lyrics say: “a girl to hold in my arms and know the magic of her charms.”
