I remember Dad and I
|
Stopped the car one rainy night
|
To help a stranger fix a flat
|
And get on his way
|
And I said Daddy do you know that man
|
Was he one of your friends
|
And he just smiled Said let me help you understand
|
So don't look the other way
|
When you can help someone in need
|
The good Lord gave you eyes
|
Don't pretend that you can't see
|
That might be you someday
|
So don't look the other way
|
Thru the wind and pouring rain
|
As we drove away
|
My Dad he sat there soaking wet
|
With a smile on his face
|
And I knew
|
Though I was just a kid I'd always remember what he did
|
When raindrops fell His words would fill my mind again
|
So don't look the other way
|
When you can help someone in need
|
The good Lord gave you eyes
|
Don't pretend that you can't see
|
That might be you someday
|
So don't look the other way
|
And now many years have come and gone Daddy's barely hanging on
|
If I turn my back I won't have to see it end like that
|
But I don't look the other way
|
When I can help someone in need
|
The good Lord gave me eyes for a reason
|
Now I see
|
That might be me someday I won't look
|
The other way
|
