about

A Song about the complicated relationship with my late Father and how he faded away through the cruelty of Dementia and how I might make sense of that. And at the end he was still my Dad, even though we were both Old Men

lyrics

I Just stopped by today to see how you are and how you've been
My face is just any other now, you've forgotten what it means
We won't catch up on the old times, It's too late to reminisce.
Now that we have become strangers, I wish we'd shared more good times to miss.

And I'm shocked at just how easy the days and weeks go by, till I see you
But you won't see me, we never did see Eye to.....
I have heard some say, "It's better taken in a moment, than to slowly fade away"

Daddy, Daddy, Did I surprise you then?
Daddy, you're still my Daddy, now we're both old men
