Daddy I Love You

Here in my heart
my daddy will stay.
He nurtured and cared,
he held me tight when I was scared.
my best friend, my teacher in life
I saw the tears in my daddy's eyes
when I said I love you.
I meant it so deeply.
You always carried me to bed
whenever I got sleepy.
You tried to do my hair
and got it tangled every time,
but I never cared
playing the guitar, strum at a time
while I danced around you
You never once sighed
I'm your little girl and I always will be
Even when I forty I'll still sit on your knee
This day is yours, I want to say
I love you dearly! Happy Father's Day
