The Car

Boy I'd love to have that car,

I whispered to my dad.

I always heard a mustang flies.

We could fix it up, and make i new again

all it needs is just a little time

daddy's hardly ever home, since mama passed away

he's always workin over time

i know that he cannot afford to buy that car

even though, he'd love to make it mine

Its not the car that i'm needin

just the chance to be with him

i know once these days roll past us,

they will never come again.

so little time, we spend way to much apart

there will always be a part of us

together in that car

Finally let go of that dream,

the time we could have shared.

It was a distant memory,

til last fall a call came

sayin dad was gone

could i come quick, he left a note for me.

Buried Dad right next to Ma

up on coleys ridge

there I said my last 'goodbye'

I opened up the note, and found a set a keys

here's your car son, I hope it flies

Its not the car that you're needin

its the chance to be with you

i hope you'll understand i always did

the best that i could do

so little time, we spent way to much apart

there will always be a part of us....

together in that car
