You used to be so easy to ask
Sippin’ on that Whiskey glass
Wishing time didn’t go so fast
And what we shared could last
Much longer
A gentleman, strong like a lion
From the ground you built an empire
Telling stories that were made to last
About a time and a place that you had
In the palm of your hands
Michael Caine in London sent you
To the tailor and the shirts he made
And Salvador in New York called the kids to his side
For paper he signed
I’ll remember all those times (all those times)
That we shared, you and I (you and I)
I’ll remember all those times (all those times)
You’re always by my side
Growing up and getting taught
About the land you love and your southern heart
And people sometimes seemed so corrupt
How they stole what you had but you never let up
No
You had your ways to make it right
When it was time to say goodbye
Like a diamond flying through the sky
5000 miles as if you never left my side
Michael Caine in London sent you
To the tailor and the shirts he made
And Salvador in New York called the kids to his side
For paper he signed
I’ll remember all those times
(All those times)
That we shared, you and I
(You and I)
I’ll remember all those times
(All those times)
You’re always by my side
(Remember all those times)
Michael Caine in London sent you
(We shared, you and I)
To the tailor and the shirts he made
(Remember all those times)
And that ace of diamonds was a piece of you
That never left side
