When
I
was
young
my
dad
would
say
"come on, son, let's go out
and
play."
sometimes it seems like yes-
-ter day,-
Then
I'd climb up
the clo-set shelf
when I-- was all by--
my
self
grab his hat
and fix the brim-
pre-ten-ding
I
him.
No
mat-ter
how hard
I try,
no
mat-ter
how many tears
I cry,
no
how many years
go by,
I
still
can't say
good bye.

He
al-ways took care
of mum and me,
we all cut down a
Christ-mas
tree,
He
al-ways had
some
time-
for me,
wind
blow through the trees,
street lights, they still shine bright
most things are the same,-
but I
miss my dad
to-night
walked by
a
Sal- va- tion
Army store,-
saw a hat
like my dad--
-dy
wore,
Tried it on,
when I
walked in
still try-ing to be
like him.
No
how hard
I try,-
no
how many years
go by,
no
how many tears
I cry,
still can't say- good bye.-
