My Dad

I keep him in my heart
He’s always on my mind
No day starts and ends
Without days I’ve left behind
Comin’ back to me
Like they’ve never been and gone
My dad was my best friend
This will always be his song

He gave me his life
From the day I was born
On every road I travelled
I’d never be alone
I always made his day
I sometimes drove him mad
But the man who made me who I am
Is the man I just called dad

He taught me how to live
Found time for us to play
Anchored all my dreams
Put nothing in their way
By giving all he had
And making me feel strong
My dad was my best friend
This will always be his song

He gave me his life
From the day I was born
On every road I travelled
I’d never be alone
I always made his day
I sometimes drove him mad
But the man who made me who I am
Is the man I just called dad

But the man who made me who I am
Is the man I just called dad
But the man who made me who I am
Is the man I just called dad
