Still Can’t Say Goodbye

When I was young my dad would say
Come on son let’s go out and play
Sometimes it seems like yesterday
I’d climb upon the closet shelf
When I was all by myself
Grab his hat and I fix the brim
Pretending I was him
No matter how hard I try
No matter how many tears I cry
No matter how many years go by
I still can’t say goodbye
He always took care of mom and me We all cut down a Christmas tree
He always had some prescious time for me Wind blows through the trees
Streetlights they still shine bright
Moon still looks the same?
But I miss my dad tonight
I walked by a Salvation Army store
Saw a hat like my daddy wore
Tried it on as I walked in
I’m still trying to be like him
No matter how hard I try
No matter how many tears I cry
No matter how many years go by
I still can’t say goodbye
I still can’t say goodbye
