I SEE IT A LOT
OTHER PEOPLE HAVE GOT
THIS LONG TRAIN OF TIME THEY CAN RIDE

FATHERS AND SONS
WHO CAN LIVE THROUGH A GOOD FIGHT OR TWO

BUT ME I WAS ONLY KID
IN A CLUB WHEN HIS HAND DISAPPEARED
AND I DIDN’T KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO
SO THE MAN THAT HE WAS
WAS WHO I STARTED TRYING TO BE

AND FROM THAT MOMENT ON
THE GHOST OF MY FATHER
ON MY SHOULDER
SINCE I’M THIRTEEN YEARS OLD
AND I
I DON’T REMEMBER
A DAY
I WAS EVER ALONE

IT’S BEEN GOOD IT’S BEEN BAD
BUT IT’S ALL THAT I HAD
IT’S HARD
TO LET GO
BUT IT’S TIME
YEA, I KNOW

HOW MANY SONGS
HAVE I FOLLOWED ALONG
THIS KEYBOARD THAT HE NEVER HEARD?

HE MIGHT BE PROUD
OF WHO I AM NOW
I DON’T KNOW

BUT LIKE ANY MELODY
STICKS IN YOUR MIND
AS YOUR WALKING AROUND
HE’S SOMEWHERE IN EACH NOTE I PLAY

I WONDER SOMETIMES
IF HE LIKES WHAT I HAVE TO SAY

IN EACH WORD I WRITE
THE GHOST OF MY FATHER
ON MY SHOULDER
SINCE I’M THIRTEEN YEARS OLD
AND I
I DON’T REMEMBER
A DAY
I WAS EVER ALONE

IT’S BEEN HAPPY AND SAD
AND SOMETIMES I GET MAD
THAT HE’S GONE
BUT I JUST LET IT GO
'CAUSE IT’S TIME
YEA, I KNOW

WHEREVER YOU ARE
AND WHOEVER YOU ARE
MAYBE THIS IS THE BEST I CAN GIVE

HOLD EVERY DAY
LIKE THAT DAY’S THE LAST YOU’RE GONNA LIVE

REMEMBER ME
AND THE GHOST
OF MY FATHER
ON MY SHOULDER

EVERY DAY I GET OLDER
A DEEP PART OF ME
CAN’T HELP BELIEVING
HE’LL BE WHEREVER I GO
NO GOODBYES
YEA, I KNOW
