Lyrics:

                                                  
We spent summers on the water
in a grey flat bottom boat
You thought we were just fishin' but
Dad, you didn't know
You were flesh and blood answer
to every question I could ask
And I miss you crazy bad these days
living out this dream we had
     The world don't seem the same without you,  
     And I doubt it ever will

I would trade this guitar
and all the fame it brought me
for half an afternoon
thanking you for all you taught me
And I'd give back the money
and the lights and the applause
If you could come to one last show
and front row cheer me on
I didn't know the meaning of pain
There's just so many things I didn't say
If I could buy you one more day 
That's the price I'd pay
ya, that's the price I'd pay

There were lessons in your tough love
that only now I understand
About when I should give everything
and when not to give a damn
And why I push my knees
into the earth and talk to God
Now you're talking to Him for me
Trying to cover for my flaws     
       I'll count the days until I see you... again
       But until then 

I would trade this guitar
and all the fame it brought me
for half an afternoon
thanking you for all you taught me
And I'd give back the money
and the lights and the applause
If you could come to one last show
and front row cheer me on
I didn't know the meaning of pain
There's just so many things I didn't say
If I could buy you one more day 

We'd spend a little more time
On the stuff that really counts
Like blowing dandilions in the breeze
And hanging upside down
from the tree limb where you'd catch me
if I ever lost my hold
Or sitting down below it
where you and I would share a Coke
I finally know the meaning of pain
I'd give anything if I could find a way
To buy us just   one more day 
That's the price I'd pay
ya, that's the price I'd pay
