Lately i´ve been noticing
i say the same things he used to say
and i even find myself acting the very same way
i tap my fingers on the table
to the rythm in my soul
and i jingle the car jeys
when i´m ready to go
when i look in the mirror
he´s right there in my eyes
starin´back at me and realize....
CHORUS*
The older i get
the more i can see
how much he loved my mother and my brother and me
and he did the best that he could
and i only hope when i have my own family
that every day i can see
a little more of my father in me
There were times i thought he was being
just a little bit hard on me
but now i understand he was making me
became the man he knew that i could be
in everything he ever did
he always did with love
and i´m proud today to say im his son
when somebody says i hope to get to meet your dad
i just smile and say you already have
CHORUS*
The older i get
the more i can see
how much he loved my mother and my brother and me
and he did the best that he could
and i only hope when i have my own family
that every day i can see
a little more of my father in me
He´s in my eyes
my heart, my soul
my hands, my pride
and when i feel alone
and i think i can´t go on
i hear him saying son you will be alright
everything´s gonna be allright
yes it is
The older i get
the more i can see
that he loved my mother my brother and me
and he did the best that he could
and i only hope when i have my own family
that everyday i see
oh i hope i see
i hope everyday i see
a little more of my father in me
a little more of my father in me
i hope everyday i see in me
in me
in me
i hope everyday i see
a little more of my father in me.
