From walking so much through life
_____
The years are weighing on me
_____
Maybe the moment is drawing near
_____
That I'll have to say goodbye to you
When I'm no longer with you
The one who kissed your cheeks
The one who sometimes hugged you
And sometimes scolded you
Remember that he was your father
_____
The man that loved you most
If one day you remember the old man
If you ever wanted a kiss from him
And you can't find me here anymore
Of the many that I gave her
_____
Young son of mine, if you want a kiss
_____
Or a hug from your dad, ask your mama for it
_____
Your mama has plenty, of the ones I gave her
So your foot doesn't slip
And avoid hitting the stones
_____
When you miss your father
_____
That went to heaven with God
_____
And you want to hug him
_____
The kisses you give your child
_____
If one day you remember the old man
_____
That worried about you
_____
If you ever wanted a kiss from him
_____
And you can't find me here anymore
_____
Of the many that I gave her
