I remember those mornings dew on the grass
The smell of pepsi max our time would pass
You'd grab your old clubs worn down but true
Said "Life's like a fairway you gotta push through"
We'd hit that first tee you'd smile wide
I'd hear all your stories you'd beam with pride
"One day you'll beat me" you'd wink and say
But I had no idea how short our time would stay
Goodbye Dad I'm lost without you here
Your laughter on the green I still hold dear
With every swing I take I feel the pain
The echoes of your voice in the pouring rain
Goodbye Dad you've left your mark on my heart
But oh how I wish we'd never had to part
I remember that summer the sun beating down
You taught me to putt said "Don't wear a frown"
We'd share a cold soda the taste of sweet cheer
But those days feel distant now you're not near
You'd paint the sky golden chasing the light
Every swing of your club it felt so right
But those last few rounds were silent and slow
As cancer crept in it stole the show
Goodbye Dad I'm lost without you here
Your laughter on the green I still hold dear
With every swing I take I feel the pain
The echoes of your voice in the pouring rain
Goodbye Dad you've left your mark on my heart
But oh how I wish we'd never had to part
Now I'm standing alone on that old fairway
Hoping you're watching guiding my way
I'll swing for you Dad with every breath
Your spirit's alive even in death
Goodbye Dad I'm lost without you here
Your laughter on the green I still hold dear
With every swing I take I feel the pain
The echoes of your voice in the pouring rain
Goodbye Dad you've left your mark on my heart
But oh how I wish we'd never had to part
So here's to your memory I carry it on
In every sunrise in every dawn
Goodbye Dad but in my soul you'll stay
On that endless green where we used to play
