I Still Can't Say Goodbye Lyrics - Charlie Landsborough

When I was young my dad would say 

Come on son let's go out and play 

Sometimes it seems like yesterday 

I'd climb upon the closet shelf 

When I was all by myself 

Grab his hat and fix the brim 

Pretending I was him 

CHORUS 

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 goodbye 

He always took care of mom and me 

We cut down a Christmas tree 

He always had some time for me 

Wind blows through the trees 

Streetlights they still shine bright 

Moon still looks the same? 

But I miss my dad tonight 

Stopped 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 

CHORUS
