My father used to tell me
You’ll miss me when I’m gone
Where are you going dad
And can’t I come along
I never understood the man
And what he’s been through
Ev’rything he did for me
Was the best he could do
(Chorus)
After all
Is said and done – I’m
My father’s son
After all
The wars are won – I’m
My father’s son
I never used to listen
To what I was told
He could not imagine
He was way too old
I would not become him
Yes this was my vow
But there is no question
Just look at me now
(Chorus)
