I remember the day you caught me smoking 
Years later it brought us closer 
I remember the day the sun exploded 
You were working on your car but didn't seem to bother 
Father 

I remember sitting on your bike at 150 miles an hour 
I remember you at the table with your sugared coffee 
And your peanut butter 
Father 

I remember racing the highway of stones 
You were disappointed in me you shouted at my mother 
I remember the day you couldn't hold me 
But I know you froze because of others 
Father 

I remember you coming to our shows being close and proud 
I remember standing at your hospital bed after the umpteenth seizure 
Father 
I remember being scared of this moment 

I know you didn't have much left in your life but we had each other 
I know she knows you loved your wife like you loved no other 
Father 

I remember you as kind, funny, good and warm 
A little rebel who tried to make the best of what he had become 
Father 

I'm supposed to say goodbye now but I won't 
I'm gonna take you with me anywhere I'll go 
I'm supposed to say goodbye now but I won't 
I'm gonna take you with me anywhere I'll go 
I'm supposed to say goodbye now but I won't 
I'm gonna take you with me anywhere I'll go 

Father, Father, Father, Father 
Father, Father, Father, Father
