For You, Dad
I can see it in your eyes
That you’re feeling kinda tired
Of this life
So many years working hard
Just to give us everything day by day
I know you love me
Even if you hardly say it
I know you miss me
Your hugs tell me so
I know you feel so empty when I’m not around
Sorry, my mom told me that
I know you’re proud of your son
Because he achieved his dream
I don’t want to cry
But I miss you so much
When you’re not here, Dad
A hug from you brings me peace
I just ask God to have you here with me
For eternity
I want to thank you
For loving me so much
For being a good man
For setting a good example
Even when I let you down sometimes
The best dad, if I were born again
Sorry, but I’ve already set that aside
I know you miss my grandma a lot
I can see it
I can see it in your eyes
You’ve changed a lot since she’s been gone
I miss her too, you can imagine
I know you love me
You tell me all the time
I know you miss me
Your hugs tell me so
I know you feel so empty when I’m not around
Sorry, my mom told me that
I know you’re proud of your son
Because he achieved his dream
I don’t want to cry
But I miss you so much
When you’re not here, Dad
A hug from you brings me peace
I just ask God to have you here with me
For eternity
I want to thank you
For loving me so much
For being a good man
For setting a good example
Even when I let you down sometimes
The best dad, if I were born again
Sorry, but I’ve already set that aside
