Dad When I held you hand and said goodbye You knew it was just for a while It was a touch for the time, for just a short time And forever I’ll see your sweet smile You went home by the light of a full moon so bright And a falling star showed you the way It’s really not far from earth to the stars And I feel and hear you each day The breeze is your whisper, a snowflake your kiss The sun is the warmth of your love The stars are the twinkle you have in your eyes, a light from your life up above A raindrop so gentle just like your soul The birds softly singing your song My dad, my friend you live all around If you think you’re a memory your wrong I look and I see your still here with me and for all those left behind, everyone knows The most special of places to the man we know Is in the splendour of a beautiful white rose I love you dad.
