There will be a day he'll come for me And then I'll be but a memory There in your mind for you to see Just how much you meant to me The time we've had and cherished too I’ll be a thought away when your feel'n blue Or when you need a smile to see you through Think of times shared by just me and you Maybe some times didn't seem so good That’s when my feelings were misunderstood I was only doing things, as a father should To keep you from hurting, as I knew you would I tried to instill to you all I have learned As you may see some day in a memory returned All that I wanted as my broken heart yearned Was for you to listen to me so you wouldn't get burned As you grow older I hope you see that it's true That everything I've done, was for to give you But there came a day I knew not what to do All I can give you are memories of me and you I hope that will be forever enough And wish for many more to be made |
