The Car

[Verse 1]
Boy, I'd love to have that car
I whispered to my dad
I always heard a mustang flies
We could fix it up, and make it new again
All it needs is just a little time

[Verse 2]
Daddy's hardly ever home, since mama passed away
He's always workin over time
I know that he cannot afford to buy that car
Even though, he'd love to make it mine

[Chorus 1]
It's not the car that I'm needin'
Just the chance to be with him
I know once these days roll past us
They will never come again
So little time, we spend way to much apart
There would always be a part of us
Together in that car

[Verse 3]
I finally let go of that dream
And the time we could have shared
It was a distant memory
Until last fall a call came sayin' dad was gone
Could I come quick, he left a note for me

[Verse 4]
Buried dad right next to mom up on Crowley's Ridge
There I said my last goodbye
I opened up the note, and found a set a keys
"Here's your car son, I hope it flies"

[Chorus 2]
But it's not the car that you're needin'
But it's my chance to be with you
I hope you understand I always did
The best that I could do
So little time, we spent way to much apart
Now there will always be a part of us
Together in that car

[Outro]
There will always be a part of us
Together in that car
