Lyrics
Lost Train (Goodbye My Father) version 2 by Jason Travis 2007
I remember waiting for you on the front lawn
Knee high to the world, but as tall as trees in your arms
You always arrived with a smile
And for us kids you would always take awhile
From The time I sat on your knee
To the time I was grown
You?re the greatest man I have ever met
The greatest Dad I have every known
I?ll be waiting for your lost train to come home
Just like I did when I was four years old
I know some day I will see you again
Goodbye my Father, Goodbye my friend
When I got that call I really didn?t know how bad
That was the longest car ride that I ever had
To see the man lying there that I called Dad
Not a breathe was left, but I held your hand
Oh, how they fought to save your life
But, it wasn?t ment to be on that warm summer night
I?ll be waiting for your lost train to come home
Just like I did when I was four years old
I know some day I will see you again
Goodbye my Father, Goodbye my friend
From The time I sat on your knee
To the time I was grown
You?re the greatest man I have ever met
The greatest Dad I have every known
Now You Fly
Fly with the angels
way up high in the sky
