Dear Dad
Dear Dad I miss you
I wish you were here
Someone to talk to
To ease my fears
You made life look easy
But now I know
Insides a struggle
Outside a show
I wish I had a moment
To show you who I am
I wish that you could see me
Now as a grown-up man
Just to know that you’d accept me
When life’s not gone to plan
To have you walk beside me
And show the world I can......
But I wonder.......
What would you think of me now?
Now you're gone, I’ll never know
What would you make of me now?
Put on a smile and see me glow
I’m walking in your shadows
I hope you’re by my side
I try to follow in your footsteps
But my steps a different size
You taught me how
You watched me grow.....
Dear Dad I love you
I feel you’re near
But I never told you
Now you’re not here
Dear Dad
I’m not so bad
I’m still your lad
