The old guy got sick, faded real quick My sister and I took two planes to Chicago Some hospital room on a Tuesday at noon A fearful and frail eighty four year old man Who once was so proud, always barking out loud Now I'm helping him go to the bathroom His place in the world once secured by a snarl Now reduced to reluctant dependence Two-door red sedan, that's what he drove Now I'm out on Lake Shore, and I roll down his window I was always amazed how an angry old man Could make another grown man feel seven years old "Are you making a living?" he'd snap out at me "You're not getting much younger," that's all he would say It was fear that was talking, and that's where he hid And the Wizard of Oz passed it on to his kids It was different for him, he did not have the tools And now here his two children with the luxury to choose We've chosen families and he moved away On the day I got married, that's where he stayed The last time we talked he was getting so weak I was holding his hand, it was all he could do just to speak Brought my mouth to his ear I sang him two songs in a whisper Then I kissed him goodbye, and we left him alone About four in the morning we all heard the phone He died how he lived, by himself, in his sleep There was loss, there was pain and reprieve and relief My very worst critic had drawn his last breath And now what would I learn from my own father's death I won't miss the judgment, the guilt or neglect And I'll forgive who I love, but I will not forget "I don't need a thing" that's what he would say If I tried to get close he just pushed me away But I did what I could and that's all that you can And I let the rest go I let the rest go Oh, I let the rest go And said goodbye to my dad
