"C'mon son, let's go out and play"
No matter, how many years go by
Still trying to be like him
I still can't say goodbye
Tried it on when I walked in
No matter, how many years go by
When I was young
And I'd climb up the closet shelf
No matter, how hard I try
We all cut down a Christmas tree
Saw a hat like my daddy wore
Grab his hat and fix the brim
When I was all by myself
I still can't say goodbye
Of Mom and me
He always had some time for me
My dad would say
Most things are the same
Sometimes it seems like yesterday
Street lights, they still shine bright
No matter, how many tears I cry
Wind blows through the trees
But I miss my dad tonight
No matter, how many tears I cry
Pretending I was him
He always took care
I walked by a Salvation Army store
No matter, how hard I try
