Dear Dad



There is a man that I admire,
Whose love and care never tire,
His name is Dad, and he’s amazing,
Always supportive and always unfazing.


Dad, Oh Dad, you are one of a kind,
A father, a friend, with a heart that shines,
Dad, Oh, Dad, thank you for all you’ve done,
Your love and guidance, have made me strong.


You’ve always been there to lend a hand,
And help me up when I couldn’t stand,
You’ve taught me to be strong and brave,
And always follow the path you pave.


Father, Oh Father, you are one of a kind,
A Father, a friend, with a heart that shines,
Friend, Oh Father, thank you for all you’ve done,
Your love and guidance, have made me strong.


And though we may not always see eye to eye,
I know you’ll be there when I’m ready to fly,
And when I look back at all the things we’ve been through,
I know I’ve been blessed to have a Dad like you.

You are one of a kind,
A father, a friend, with a heart that shines,
Dad, Oh Dad, Your my favorite one, I'm glad I'm your son, Thank you for all you’ve done,
Your love and guidance, have made me strong.
