You're Still You

Crank this up (as Josh Groban should be listened to)

"You're Still You"

Through the darkness
I can see your light
And you will always shine
And I can feel your heart in mine
Your face I've memorized
I idolize just you
I look up to
Everything you are
In my eyes you do no wrong
I've loved you for so long
And after all is said and done
You're still you
After all
You're still you
You walk past me
I can feel your pain
Time changes everything
One truth always stays the same
You're still you
After all
You're still you
I look up to
Everything you are
In my eyes you do no wrong
And I believe in you
Although you never asked me to
I will remember you
And what life put you through

And in this cruel and lonely world
I found one love
You're still you
After all
You're still you

Happy Birthday, dad

may 20

reporter: I know it’s cheesy, but it must be nice that people really loved your dad. It must be a great comfort.

"Oh yeah, totally -- that’s one of the gifts he gave. Anytime you’ve had a parent and they’ve gone around creating goodwill...

To have a stranger come up to me and share a story like, "I was at a coffee shop and there was nowhere to sit and your dad stood up and gave me his seat." All those tiny stories, he never would come home and talk about like, "Guess how cool I am?" It’s just those tiny little moments that make up a whole person. It’s really nice to hear them." - Jason Ritter on his dad, John Ritter.

I know and have that feeling about stories of my dad too.
Happy birthday, dad <3
