The Old Man — текст песни (John Mcdermott)





The tears have all been shed now

Weve said our last goodbyes

His souls been blessed

Hes laid to rest

Andits now I feel alone

He was moer than just a father

A teacher my best friend

He can still be heard

In the tunes we shared

When we play them on our 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 man



As a boy hed take me walking

By mountain field and stream

And he showed me things

Not known to kings

And secret between him and me

Like the colours of the pheasant

As he rises in the dawn

And how to fish and make a wish

Beside the holly tree



I 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 hes done
