Always There



You've always been there for me
When I've needed you the most
Even the times I felt that I didn't need you
You were always close
Close to my heart
Or just a phone call away
We would talk
I listened
To every word you had to say
No matter what I've done wrong
You were always there
I might have thought you were being stubborn,
But, I know now you just cared
You were always there
When I done right
Pushing me and guiding me
Building me up and making me fly through
The times you make me smile
Memories of laughter and love
Times I cried too and with you
You have always been there
Showing your daughter your love
