My Father

Verse
I'm so proud of you he would say
You're living your life in a special way
Doing what you love to do everyday
I'm so proud of you he would say

We'd sit around and talk for a while
Smoke a cigar and crack a smile
We talk about all the memories gone by
He would look at me and I could see
He was proud to be my father
And he would say I'm proud of you in every way

Chorus
I am so proud of you he would say
Holding his words close to me everyday
His words feel so good inside
They give me strength , honour and pride
I am so proud of you he would say

Verse
We would laugh, we'd cry and philosophize
And drink martinis extra dry/
He would tell me stories of yesterday
and speak of a world so far away
He would look at me and I could see
He was proud to be my father/
And he would say I'm so proud of you everyday

Watching birds flying by
He'd turn to me and let out a sigh
'Life is beautiful' he would say
Embrace it's glory in all it's ways
He would look at me and I could see
He was proud to be my father
And he would say, I am so proud of you today

Chorus
I am so proud of you he would say
Holding his words close to me everyday
His words feel so good inside
They give me strength , honour and pride
I am so proud of you he would say

Verse
Towards the end sometimes I'd cry
He told me to look for signs
He'l send them as days go by
I will miss our time together
And now he's gone forever
I will never forget those words he would say

Chorus
