As the years roll away, I still remember the days
Of my old man, and all the things he used to say
And how he'd watch me from his chair, with a twinkle in his eye
And as the years roll away, the memory doesn't die
(Verse 1)
He was a man of simple means, a heart of gold
With weathered hands and a wisdom untold
He worked hard, day by day, to keep our home
And even when times were tough, he never felt alone
(Chorus)
As the years roll away, I still remember the days
Of my old man, and all the things he used to say
And how he'd watch me from his chair, with a twinkle in his eye
And as the years roll away, the memory doesn't die
(Verse 2)
In his eyes I saw the strength and the love he held for me
And his words of wisdom still ring true, and I'll always remember
He taught me how to stand tall, and to face my fears
And to never give up on what I hold dear
(Chorus)
As the years roll away, I still remember the days
Of my old man, and all the things he used to say
And how he'd watch me from his chair, with a twinkle in his eye
And as the years roll away, the memory doesn't die
(Bridge)
Now he's gone and the house is so empty and cold
But his love and his spirit will never grow old
I'll hold him in my heart, and I'll cherish every day
And as the years roll away, the memories will stay
(Chorus)
As the years roll away, I still remember the days
Of my old man, and all the things he used to say
And how he'd watch me from his chair, with a twinkle in his eye
And as the years roll away, the memory doesn't die
