Don't wait till its too late
I see my dad in the ocean,and in the sand as the waves crash.
I see my dad in the sky,and in the clouds as the green flash.
I see the way that I have changed,ever since that sunny day.
And the person that I blamed,always told me he'd pass away.
I see my dad in my children's laughter, In there smiles and good byes.
I see my dad when there sad as a tear rolling down from there eye's.
I see the way I hated life, because death will always be.
So for all this time I survived,death was apart me.
I see my dad in my sisters movement,and in my brothers conserving ways.
I see my dad in my mother's spirit,as she decorates his display.
I know now what my dad was trying to tell me there's a time to work and a time to play.
But I guess he forgot to tell me there's a time to leave and a time to stay.
And maybe he is waiting for me besides god at heavens gate.
I know now what my dad was trying to tell me when he said don't wait till its to late.

With rugged clothes torn and bare
And I can see a touch of silver in your hair
I can

You were walking along the shore.

I can still remember the day
though it was so long ago
When he walked out and left
for reasons I did not know
Though he was
