Things My Father Said

The things my father said would make me a better man Hard work and the love of friends, a woman that understands I hope my father knows the seeds we've sewn still grow At night I go to sleep and pray he's watching over me Somewhere there's a star that's shining So bright that I can see you smile And all that I need is one last chance Just to hear you say goodbye Sometimes I remember, when you taught me to tie my shoes One thing I will never forget, is the day that I lost you I hope you always know the car that we built will always roll Somewhere there's a star that's shining So bright that I can see you smile And all that I need is one last chance Just to hear you say goodbye And if you have a dream you better hang on for dear life And when that cold wind blows, just let it pass you by The things my father said Somewhere there's a star that's shining So bright that I can see you smile And all that I need is one last chance Just to hear you say goodbye
