The Old Man by John McDermott. It is about a son's memories of his father as he was growing up.We played this song at my father's funeral. A wonderful song by a great singer. A loving tribute to any father, Even though the song is through the eyes of a son the message is that of love.Some lines are:- I never will forget him for he made me what I am,Though he may be gone memories linger on and I miss him, the old man.

Mike & The Mechanics › The Living Years
Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door
I know that Im a prisoner
To all my father held so dear
I know that Im a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
Stilted conversations
Im afraid thats all weve got
You say you just dont see it
He says its perfect sense
You just cant get agreement
In this present tense
We all talk a different language
Talking in defence
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
Its too late when we die
To admit we dont see eye to eye
So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
Its the bitterness that lasts
So dont yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different day
And if you dont give up, and dont give in
You may just be o.k.
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
Its too late when we die
To admit we dont see eye to eye
I wasnt there that morning
When my father passed away
I didnt get to tell him
All the things I had to say
I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
Im sure I heard his echo
In my babys new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
Its too late when we die
To admit we dont see eye to eye

Hmm I'm not sure....maybe try Lifehouse's "Everything" I love that song..it's like 6 mins long and sad...you'd have to look up the lyrics because im not sure what it's about. Probably a girl..but you can interpret it however you want.

I lost my dad in April, he was an old cowboy, we played the Old Violin by Johnny Paycheck at his memorial service.
