The Old Man

The tears have all been shed now

Weve said our last goodbyes

His souls been blessed

Hes laid to rest

And its now I feel alone

He was more than just my father

My teacher my best friend

He can still be heard

In the tunes we shared

When we play them on my own(chorus)

I never will forget him

For he made me "what I am"

Though he may be gone

Memories linger on

And I miss him, the old manAs a boy hed take me walking

By mountain, field and stream

And he'd show me things

Not known to kings

And secret between him and me

Like the colors of the pheasant

As he rises in the dawn

Or how to fish and make a wish

Beside the fairy tree(chorus)

I never will forget him

For he made me "what I am"

Though he may be gone

Memories linger on

And I miss him, the old manI thought hed live forever

He seemed so big and strong

But the minutes fly

And the years roll by

For a father and a son

And suddenly when it happened

There was so much left unsaid

No second chance

To tell him thanks

For everything hed done(chorus)

Oh, I never will forget him

For he made me "what I am"

Though he may be gone

Memories linger on

God, I miss him, the old man
