The sunburned hands I used to hold

I miss you, Dad.



I miss you most of all when autumn leaves start to fall.

Beautiful song and I agree with your sentiments. I miss my daddy, too. He loved to take walks in the fall.

Yep. Since my daddy was (sort of) from around your neck of the woods, he'd try to drag us out there this time of year. The Ozarks in the fall were his favorite.

This is one of the few songs that make my husband cry.
