He Would Tell You

He is half of the reason

You were born in that

November rain

But he's fully the man that taught you to love

And made you who we love today

It's sad that

I never could meet him

But I see him in you every day

And if he had a chance to tell you his thoughts

I feel that

I know what he'd say

He would tell you he loves you

And he is so proud of the woman once his little girl

You look just like your mother

When she was your age and there's nothing that's more beautiful

He would say that he's near

And promise he hears when you speak to him late in the night

And it hurts him so bad to look down when you're sad

And know he is the reason you cry

And he can't quite promise you when

But he knows that he'll hold you again

But until that time keep your eyes on the sky

And go change the world you're in

He'd remind you of

Christmas with family

And that Jesus should always come first

And it's much more amazing he's now celebrating

With the angels embracing the birth

And he can't walk with you down the aisle

But maybe it's better that way

Cause he is so sure that he'd cry like a baby

The day that he gives you away
