A Perfect Day

We always knew this day would come
You taught me well, so trust me now
A perfect day, a day for you and I
Now the evening shadows chill my heart and I can’t say goodbye

The sadness in your eyes

Now the evening shadows chill my heart and I can’t say
Oh dad, I really hate to see
Just a perfect day of perfect hours, no other word would do
So many things we left unsaid
But the princess and the old king
Knew this day would end
Just a perfect day of perfect hours, no other word would do

You were always my best friend
Knew this day would end
It was always I who said, "I’ll see you soon"
We had a special day together
Now the evening shadows chill my heart and I can’t say goodbye
We had a special day together
I must confess, I’d always hoped
You were always my best friend
A perfect day, a day for you and I

A perfect day, a perfect day with you
A perfect day, a perfect day with you
It’ll be okay
When you were young

Dad, don’t worry now I’m grown
It can’t be a surprise
But the princess and the old king
Today would pass me by
A perfect day, a day for you and I
And I’ll be on my way

So many songs unsung
