DADDY'S LOVE



             DADDY'S LOVE

                              
EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE NOT WITH US HERE ON EARTH,
YOU TOOK CARE OF ME SINCE BIRTH.
WE HAVE HAD OUR STRUGGLES BUT WE'VE KEPT IT TOGETHER,
YOU WILL BE WITH US FOREVER.
YOU'RE IN A BETTER PLACE,
I'D LIKE TO SEE YOUR FACE.
THOSE MEMORIES WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER,
WISH YOU COULD BE HERE THIS DECEMBER.
YOU ALWAYS MADE ME LAUGH AND CRY,
NOW I EVER DO IS LOOK UP AT THE SKY.
NOW YOU ARE WITH YOUR MOM AND DAD,
WISH I COULD DONE BETTER THAN TO MAKE YOU DAD.
YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU SO MUCH,
I MISS MY DADDY A WHOLE BUNCH.
I KEEP YOU CLOSE TO MY HEART,
SOME DAYS I FEEL LIKE I'M FALLING APART.
SOME PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND,
HOW IT FEELS NOT TO HAVE THEIR DADDY'S HANDS.
WHEN YOU NEED YOUR  DADDY'S LOVE,
MINE IS IN THE HEAVEN ABOVE.
