| Lyric: |
On this Father's Day My thoughts turn to you Out of sight, out of mind My apology - this song's long overdue You disappeared like a Puff of smoke Many decades have passed Since we last spoke Many decades have passed Since we last spoke On this Father's Day Brushing cobwebs from my brain You've been gone so long But some memories remain You've been gone so long But some memories remain Sunday morning breakfast Salami and eggs Hula Hooping is all the rage Find a 1909 In a pile of pennies When we're done We didn't find any Slide the coins in red penny wrappers Close both ends Eat peanut butter crackers Eat peanut butter crackers On Father's Day With wider latitude For all that you were And all you'd do On Father's Day A gift for you An ashtray made of clay For you to use You've been gone so long But some memories remain A bowl of M & Ms Lies on the living room table You look away I grab as many as I'm able Dinners of burgers Milkshakes and fries When I add the receipt There's a twinkle in your eyes When I found it undercounted I say "Dad I found a mistake!" "'Cause you're an honest boy Here's a piece of chocolate cake" A piece of chocolate cake Your life wasn't easy Many losses, so young But you and your younger sister Refused to be undone From scratch you built a business With long hours and toil Your sister helped raised me Like a son, that flowers in rocky soil On this Father's Day With growing gratitude For all that you did I honor you now On this Father's Day A gift for you A heart-felt song So long overdue And as this song rises And floats in the air Know in my memory Papa You'll always be here Yes you Will always be here Yes you Will always be here |
