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 tried

A split second

Can last a life time

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
