lyrics

My father was a pilot
He danced above the clouds
He spent his youth in service
Among the few and proud
I know it wasn't easy
Being gone for months on end
He missed a lot of birthdays
We worried half to death
But he was a good, good man

My father was a sailor
He sailed across the sea
He made it into harbor
But he couldn't get through to me
It wasn't that I liked it
Being jealous and uptight
I saw how much it hurt him
When my brother and I would fight
But he was a patient man
He was a patient man

My father was the anchor
Through sickness and in health
Who kept us all together
Never thinking of himself
These days we have our distance
The wound is healing slow
And though we cannot tell him
We all want him to know
He did his very best
He was the very best

Holding on another night
Holding on to see you in another life
