Dads Don't Die

You can cover him in flowers

Carve his name into a stone

Let your brother have his toolbox

And keep his number in your phone

Leave tears on the bathroom floor

'Cause he ain't here anymore, but

Dads don't die

They still make you laugh, still make you cry

Still make you mad the day it dawns

That you were wrong and he was right

Dads don't die

And neither does the love they leave behind

That's the holy truth I'll hold onto

Until I see you in the next life

Where there's no pain, no goodbyes

And dads don't die

I'll see his blue eyes in the mirror

In the mirror

And in the crooked way I smile

Smile

And he'll be with me in my dreams

Pushing me on a tire swing

Still making me feel like I can fly

Dads don't die

They still make you laugh, still make you cry

Still make you mad the day it dawns

That you were wrong and he was right

Dads don't die

And neither does the love they leave behind

That's the holy truth I'll hold onto

Until I see you in the next life

Where there's no pain, no goodbyes

And dads don't die

Dads don't die

Even if they let you down sometimes

There's gonna come a day you understand

That he was just a man, and you turned out alright

Dads don't die

And neither does the love they leave behind

That's the holy truth I'll hold onto

Until I see you in the next life

Where there's no pain, no goodbyes

Dads don't die

Dads don't die

And dads don't die

And dads don't die, don't die

Yeah
