At this moment, it's our time At this moment I'm allowed to think you're mine We can joke, laugh, and smile But I know that just in a little while I'll stand and watch It's just about that time I fear The time I realize soon you'll no longer be here And I'll have to choke out the word "goodbye" As I use all my strength trying not to cry Because soon I'll stand and watch So now it's time for our famous hug You squeeze me tight so I feel all your love Now you get into your car and drive away I open my mouth but I don't know what to say So now I just stand and watch I watch you drive down the street As the world spins violently under my feet The car slowly goes out of sight In my heart I know something's not right But still I stand and watch I'll stand and take the blow Only thinking of how I never wanted you to go The hug lingers and I know you're not to blame I know you feel the same It's more time we wish we had So I stand there and whisper "I love you dad"

Stand and Watch
At this moment, it's our time At this moment I'm allowed to think you're mine We can joke, laugh, and smile But I know that just in a little while I'll stand and watch It's just about that time I fear The time I realize soon you'll no longer be here And I'll have to choke out the word "goodbye" As I use all my strength trying not to cry Because soon I'll stand and watch So now it's time for our famous hug You squeeze me tight so I feel all your love Now you get into your car and drive away I open my mouth but I don't know what to say So now I just stand and watch I watch you drive down the street As the world spins violently under my feet The car slowly goes out of sight In my heart I know something's not right But still I stand and watch I'll stand and take the blow Only thinking of how I never wanted you to go The hug lingers and I know you're not to blame I know you feel the same It's more time we wish we had So I stand there and whisper "I love you dad"
