"Song For Pete" lyrics

"Song For Pete"

You were my friend, you took my hand
Something so tough under your skin
My Papa Pete, the proud father
An endless love, my grandmother
For sixty years, I saw the torch
Just like a kid on your front porch
You stood so tall at the window
I cried so hard folding your clothes

I saw you and I
Saw me
I saw you and I
Saw Pete

Give a little bit
Give a little more
You try, a split second
Can last a lifetime
Teach me a lesson
How to stay humble with pride
Your expression
Your expression

I saw you and I
Saw me
I saw you and I
Saw Pete
