[00:16.34]Lately I've been noticing
[00:17.83]I say the same things he used to say
[00:23.68]And I even find myself
[00:25.47]Acting the very same way
[00:30.60]I tap my fingers on the table to the rhythm in my soul
[00:34.63]And I jingle the car keys when I'm ready to go
[00:38.66]And when I look in the mirror he's right there in my eyes
[00:42.21]Starin' back at me and I realize
[00:45.49]The older I get the more I can see
[00:49.14]How much he loved my mother and my brother and me
[00:53.62]And he did the best that he could
[00:56.71]And I only hope when I have my own family
[01:03.38]
[01:03.68]That everyday I see
[01:06.62]A little more of my father in me
[01:17.08]There were times I thought he was bein'
[01:19.13]Just a little bit hard on me
[01:24.02]But now I understand he was makin' me
[01:27.55]Become the man he knew that I could be
[01:31.73]In everything he ever did he always did with love
[01:35.78]And I'm proud today to say I'm his son
[01:39.36]When somebody says I hope I get to meet your dad
[01:43.30]I just smile and say you already have
[01:46.58]The older I get the more I can see
[01:50.22]How much he loved my mother and my brother and me
[01:54.81]And he did the best that he could
[01:58.05]And I only hope when I have my own family
[02:04.07]
[02:04.72]That everyday I see
[02:07.68]A little more of my father in me
[02:13.10]He's in my eyes my heart, my soul
[02:17.24]My hands, my pride and when I feel alone
[02:21.32]And I think I can't go on I hear him sayin' "Son you'll be alright
[02:30.90]Everything is gonna be alright" Yes it is
[02:40.46]The older I get the more I can see
[02:44.20]That he loved my mother and my brother and me
[02:48.29]And he did the best that he could
[02:51.42]And I only hope when I have my own family
[02:57.70]That everyday I see, oh I hope I see
[03:05.38]I hope everyday I see a little more of my father in me
[03:15.30]A little more of my father in me
[03:22.66]I hope everyday I see in me
[03:28.20]In me, in me
[03:32.23]I hope everyday I see
[03:36.06]A little more of my father in me
