(Verse 1)

I know I didn't call everyday

Didn't say half of what I wanted to say

But you've been my hero all along

Steered me right away from wrong

Time passes in a blink

And Sometimes I just think

(Chorus)

About those memories

Those used to be's

Did I make you proud

About those yesterdays

That seem so far away

And yet like yesterday too

Hey dad I love you

(Verse 2)

You wrote home from Vietnam

There was gunfire

There were bombs

But you never said a word

All your family ever heard

Was, I'm alright

I'm doing good

No need to worry

like you thought you would

It's not as bad as they say

Hey, I miss you but I'm doing OK

(Chorus)

And those memories

Those used to be's

Must have been so hard sometimes

And those yesterday's

That seem so far away

And yet like yesterday too

Hey dad I love you

(Verse 3)

And They say that time will heal

But that don't change how I feel

And I don't know what to do

Here without you

(Chorus)

And those memories

Those used to be's

Wouldn't give them up for anything

And those yesterday's

That seem so far away

And yet like yesterday too

Well their a part of me and you..

Hey dad I love you
