Ghost of My Father Lyrics
[00:20.00] I see it a lot
[00:21.93] Other people have got this long train of time they can ride
[00:28.05] Fathers and sons who could live through a good fight or two
[00:33.90] But me, I was only a kid
[00:36.62] In the club when his hand disappeared
[00:39.82] And I didn't know what I should do
[00:43.75] So the man that he was
[00:45.62] Was who I started trying to be
[00:49.66] From that moment on
[00:51.70] The ghost of my father on my shoulder since some thirteen years old
[00:59.79] And I, I don't remember a day I was ever alone
[01:07.25] It's been good, it's been bad
[01:09.08] But it's all that I had
[01:11.29] And it's hard to let go
[01:14.76] But it's time...
[01:19.34] Yeah, I know
[01:21.14]
[01:31.14] How many songs have I followed along
[01:34.84] This keyboard that he never heard
[01:39.04] He might be proud of who I am now
[01:42.78] I don't know
[01:44.64] But like any melody sticks in your mind as you're walking around
[01:50.71] He's somewhere in each note I play
[01:54.47] I wonder sometimes if he likes what I have to say
[02:00.62] In each word I write
[02:02.52] The ghost of my father on my shoulder since some thirteen years old
[02:10.24] And I, I don't remember a day I was ever alone
[02:18.36] It's been happy and sad
[02:19.87] And sometimes I get mad he's gone
[02:23.09] But I just let it go
[02:25.78] Cause it's time...
[02:29.72] Yeah, I know
[02:32.35]
[02:49.52] Wherever you are and whoever you are
[02:53.38] Maybe this is the best i can give
[02:57.58] Hold everyday like that day's the last you're gonna live
[03:03.90] Remember me
[03:05.00] And the ghost of my father on my shoulder...
[03:13.56] The ghost of my father...
[03:19.13] Everyday I get older, a deep part of me can't help believing he'll be wherever I go
[03:29.06] No goodbyes...
[03:33.02] Yeah, I know
[03:37.95]
[00:21.93] Other people have got this long train of time they can ride
[00:28.05] Fathers and sons who could live through a good fight or two
[00:33.90] But me, I was only a kid
