--- Start Of Still Cant Say Goodbye Lyrics ---

When I was young ... my Dad would say
Come on Son let's go out and play
Sometimes it seems like yesterday

And I'd climb up ... the closet shelf
When I was all by my-self
Grab his hat ... and fix the brim
Pretending I was him

No matter ... how hard I try
No matter how many tears I cry
No matter how many years go by
I still can't say good-bye

He always took care ... of Mom and me
We all cut down a Christmas tree
He always had some time for me

Wind blows through the trees
Street lights they still shine bright
Most things are the same ... but I miss my Dad to-night

I walked by a Salvation Army store
Saw a hat like my daddy wore
Tried it on when I walked in
Still trying to be like him

No matter ... how hard I try
No matter ... how many years go by
No matter ... how many tears I cry
I still can't say good-bye
