fureys - the old man lyrics

Loading...

the tears have all been shed now
we’ve said our last goodbyes
his soul’s been blessed, he’s laid to rest
and it’s now i feel alone.
he was more than just a father,
a teacher, my best friend
and he can still be heard in the tunes we shared when
we played them on our own.

i never will forget him,
for he made me what i am.
though he may be gone,
memories linger on.
and i miss him,
the old man.

as a boy he’d take me walking by mountain field and
stream,
and he’d show me things not known to kings
a secret between him and me.
like the colours of the pheasant
as he rises in the dawn.
and how to fish and make a wish
beside the holy tree.

i never will forget him,
for he made me what i am.
though he may be gone,
memories linger on.
and i miss him,
the old man.

i thought he’d live forever
he seemed so big and strong.
but the minutes fly and the years rolled by
for a father and a son.
and suddenly when it happened
there was so much left unsaid.
no second chance to tell him thanks
for everything he’d done.

oh i never will forget him,
for he made me what i am.
though he may be gone,
memories linger on.
i miss him,
my old man.
