Things My Father Said (Album Version)

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'd better hang on for dear life,

And when that cold wind blows

Just let it pass you by.

Yeah, things my father said

Yea! 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
