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 sewn still grow,
At night I go to sleep and pray he's watching over me
[Chorus]
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
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 the car that we built will always roll
[Chorus]
And if you have a dream
You'd better hang on for dear life,
And when that cold wind blows
Just let it pass you by.
Yeah, things my father said
Yea! Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Goodbye,
Just to hear you say,
Goodbye
