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 sown, still grow

At night I go to sleep and

Pray he is 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

That 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 the cold wind blows

Just let it pass you by

Yeah, things my father said

Yeah, yeah, yeah

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

Goodbye

Just to hear you say

"Goodbye"
