He is half of the reason
|
You were born in that November rain
|
But he's fully the man that taught you to love
|
And made you who we love today
|
|
It's sad that I never could meet him
|
But I see him in you every day
|
And if he had a chance to tell you his thoughts
|
I feel that I know what he'd say
|
|
He would tell you he loves you
|
And he is so proud of the woman once his little girl
|
You look just like your mother
|
When she was your age and there's nothing that's more beautiful
|
He would say that he's near
|
And promise he hears when you speak to him late in the night
|
And it hurts him so bad to look down when you're sad
|
And know he is the reason you cry
|
And he can't quite promise you when
|
But he knows that he'll hold you again
|
But until that time keep your eyes on the sky
|
And go change the world you're in
|
|
He'd remind you of Christmas with family
|
And that Jesus should always come first
|
And it's much more amazing he's now celebrating
|
With the angels embracing the birth
|
|
And he can't walk with you down the aisle
|
But maybe it's better that way
|
Cause he is so sure that he'd cry like a baby
|
The day that he gives you away
|

He Would Tell You
