Do you remember the jeep
Going for rides
With the top down
And music blarring
I sang at the top of my lungs
My hair blowing everywhere
Dancing in my seat
To Bonjovi
And Guns and Roses
We took the back roads
Absorbing the sunlight
I loved those moments
Bonding over music
That only you and I shared
Forgetting the rest of the world
Just you and me
No girlfriends
Or school
Or drama
Do you remember the White Sox game
My first baseball game
I don't remember who they played
Or who won
It was Rich and Felicia
You and me
I begged you for a hat
To remember the day
I still have it
It's hanging in my closet
By the clasps in back
It's getting old
And *****
I don't let people touch it
Not very often at least
It's an awesome memory
And people don't unserstand
What the hat means to me
Do you remember Six Flags
It was you and I
Rich and Felicia
I remember the long lines
And constant jokes
I remember waiting for superman
Nearly dying of laughter
From your stupid jokes
I was afraid
Afraid of its height
But I got on
With the three of you
It was a lot of fun
Even though I kept my eyes closed
The rush of the wind in my hair
My voice was hoarse
After screaming most of the time
I remember getting squid hats
Making funny faces for the camera
I remember getting to the front of that line
The raging bull
A large roller coaster
That I lost my nerve on
I felt bad because you wouldn't ride without me
But my fear overruled
Do you remember the sushi bar
Where I had sushi for the first time
It was an old place
And an odd experience
But one I don't regret
It felt strange
On my tounge and throat
But I enjoyed it
Learning about a different culture
From you
Something that stays between us
Something no one else can intrude on
So many memories I have
Of you and I
We don't talk much
Since I'm always busy
Sorry I'm not around much
Even though I'd like to be
Sometimes I feel out of place
But you still include me
With the family
In your life
Letting me know
That I'm welcome at any point
I love you dad
Even if I don't say it
You're stuck with me
Forever and eternity
Good memories are always there
With just you and me
Stuff I wont forget
Stuff I'll remember until I die
So here's a few
Of the things
That comes to mind
When I think of you
Happy Father's Day dad
I love you
