When I was young my dad would say Come on son let’s go out and play Sometimes it seems like yesterday I’d climb upon the closet shelf When I was all by myself Grab his hat and I fix the brim Pretending I was him
No matter how hard I try No matter how many tears I cry No matter how many years go by I still can’t say goodbye
He always took care of mom and me We all cut down a Christmas tree He always had some prescious time for me
Wind blows through the trees Streetlights they still shine bright Moon still looks the same? But I miss my dad tonight
I walked by a Salvation Army store Saw a hat like my daddy wore Tried it on as I walked in I'm still trying to be like him
No matter how hard I try No matter how many tears I cry No matter how many years go by I still can’t say goodbye I still can’t say goodbye
