memories are yours to keep
he gave them to you to use without a peep
you learned young from him
who you were was  important
just laugh and be happy
he lifted you up
without a cruel bone in his body
you knew he was true
you felt his love
you learned to love you
and accept who you are
yes, he taught you to smile
and never cared who saw
he taught you to love
and didn't care who you are
thanks for the memories
of it is ok to be you
just smile
every once in a while
He taught you how to cope
Thank you Bob Hope
