Being Your Dad

I smile at photographs of you when you were young I swell with pride at cups and prizes you have won We've shared so many days together having fun I've loved being your dad We had so many years when it was just we two And I did my best at all I had to do You made me proud enough to try to write this song I've loved being your dad I can't imagine life without you here with me Although I know you'll have to make your own And when you need a helping hand right here I'll be You'll never need to feel you're all alone I've tried my best to make you ready for the world For I know you'll soon become a woman not a girl And I'll love you always, you'll forever be my only one I've loved being your dad And I hope in the future when you think of me When I've become a star up in the sky You look upon our time together happily Then in your heart I know I'll never die I don't know what the future holds for you But I'm sure you'll always do the best that you can do And I'm here forever no matter what you need I'll always be your dad
