Lyrics

"I Wish That I Could Tell You"
(Lyrics and Music - M. Novak)

I think back to the days so long ago
I miss the silly talk and the things that you know
I never embraced the things you held dear
It was ok you let me choose my frontier

You worked so hard to give us a good life
Working day and night even with physical strife
You served your country part of the the greatest generation
Did your duty with the family creation

Chorus:
I wish I could tell you how you helped me be true
I wish I could tell you but I think that you knew
I wish I could tell you what a good man you were
I can’t turn back time, but many concur

You never told me of the dreams you didn’t attain
And I can almost see you watching the game
And I still cheer for the team that you embraced
So many Sundays with friends interlaced

Serving the public always with a smile
If someone was in need you would go that extra mile
Your many friends showed respect and adored you
They always knew what you said was true

CHORUS:

We had a special bond between father and son
Based on mutual respect and having fun
You were always there in my time of need
I wish that I could tell you, you’re my hero indeed

CHORUS:
