For mum and dad

Say thank you.This time as a song.

Thank you is hard to say. Easier to sing.

One answer is enough to start, then you pick the sound and the singing language.

Here's how it sounds

Not a trailer, not a clip. A complete song Songmania built from the details next to it.

What was typed in:

For dad. Taught me to ride a bike and never let go, whatever he claims.

Papa hält fest

72 bpm · 2:57 min

Show the lyrics

[Intro] [Verse] Du sagtest mir, ich bin bereit Das Rad fährt von allein Ich war so jung, mir war nicht klar Dass deine Hand noch da war [Chorus] Papa, ich weiß jetzt Du hast mich die ganze Zeit gehalten Papa, ich weiß jetzt Dass du mich nie losgelassen hast [Verse] Der Asphalt war so nah am Kopf Ich spürte deine Finger noch Du sagtest, schau nach vorne nur Und lenktest mich um jede Kurve [Chorus] Papa, ich weiß jetzt Du hast mich die ganze Zeit gehalten Papa, ich weiß jetzt Dass du mich nie losgelassen hast [Bridge] Alle großen Dinge Fangen so an Eine Lüge und ein Arm im Rücken Der dich trägt [Chorus] Papa, ich weiß jetzt Du hast mich die ganze Zeit gehalten Papa, ich weiß jetzt Dass du mich nie losgelassen hast [Outro]

How it works

Three steps to your song

The lyrics are written right here on the page, and you read them in full before you pay. The music is made after the purchase — that takes a few minutes. You can watch it happen or close the page: as soon as the song is ready, an email goes to the address from checkout.

  1. Name and language

    Tell us who it is for and which language to sing in. One small personal story is optional.

  2. The lyrics come first — free

    From your details Songmania writes the complete lyrics. You read them here at your leisure. That part costs nothing.

  3. Buy, and the music begins

    If the lyrics feel right, you buy the song. Only then do music and voice come to life — a few minutes later you can listen, download and give it away.

  • Memories instead of qualities

    Not a list of virtues. One specific scene that shows what you mean.

  • Honest, not sentimental

    Warm and grounded. Not a lyric that makes you wince.

  • Grandparents too

    The list covers mother, father, both parents, and both grandparents.

Common questions

What you may want to know first

Do I have to give a name?
No. Without one the song sings "mum" or "dad". With one it gets more personal.
Does it suit Mother's Day and Father's Day?
Both, and birthdays or anniversaries as well. Put the occasion in the free text field.
Can it be a memorial?
Yes. Describe the situation in the free text field and the tone turns quiet.
How personal does it get?
As personal as your detail. One sentence about a real memory changes the whole song.

The thing you never said

Write down one memory and read the lyrics. That part costs nothing.
