I remember your smile every second of the day
And when I am sad you always seem too know exactly what to say
When I fall over your spirit picks me straight back up,
It's like you kiss me better and tell me that I’m tough

Your daddy’s little angel, mum always used too say
I always denied it and told her to go away
You tell me that you love me and deep down i know that its true
And i'll take it to heart and cherish it too.

You’ve taught me so much in my 16 years of life
You’ve taught me to laugh and stay out of strife.
You’ve taught me to love and to strive for the best
And you promised me that no matter who I became you wouldn’t love me any less

I see the bravery in your eyes as you face each day
You face it with courage because it’s the true family way
The spirit of a butterfly waiting to take flight
Is the exact way you describe me when you see me in sight

Dad you’re my hero
I want be just like you
I will love you forever and I know you will love me forever too

He may laugh, but only to hide his tears. I would vote...show, and tell him...and see his face crease in love.

And light.

There are few heros any more, and them that are Dads...are the best.

P.S. Don't wait for Father's Day.

Do it soon.
