Things My Father Said

[Verse 1]
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 sown still grow
At night, I go to sleep
And pray he is watching over me

[Refrain]
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

[Verse 2]
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
That car that we built will always roll

[Refrain]
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

[Bridge]
And if you have a dream
You better hang on for dear life
And when the cold wind blows
Just let it pass you by

Yeah, things my father said
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Refrain]
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
Goodbye
