lyrics:

His hands, big handsMy hands, smaller handsWalking hand in handHand off, the future's at handMy feet, small feetHis feet, bigger feetLearning to walk on his feetHis hands tickle my feetLooking back at you, looking after melooking back at me, looking up to youRemembering your face, looking now at my faceAnd now I look like you...His voice, strong voiceHis voice, kind voiceQuestions, voicing concernseVoices, answers learnedThese are some things I remeber about youI remeber the little things but the big things tooI remember your smileNow it seem we must part ways for a whilePart of me will be with youPart of you will be with me tooHis eyes, gentle eyesMy eyes glitterHis hands, big handsHand off the future's at hand...Happy Father's Day Dad! (onemanpiano).
