Think of me when the sun is setting, and I have long passed

Think of all the love we’ve shared, and all the times we’ve laughed

I know I haven’t been a perfect father, but my love was always true

My intentions were always honest, and all I ever was I gave to you

Light a candle on my birthday, and remember who I am

Never amounted to much in my life, but a remembrance would be grand

You walk in many native footsteps, that have walked before you

Hold your head up high as you find your own path through

Love with all your heart, it’s the greatest gift you give

And love your wife and baby completely, through this one life that you live
