DAUGHTER'S LOVE SONG

You taught me how to say so many things
To open up my heart, whatever it brings
To see the truth no matter how much pain
To know that lies could never equal gain

You taught me not to rein emotions in
To know that loving cannot be a sin
To show the ones i love in every way
To say the words "i love you" every day

Your hand upon my face, your hand in mine
Was like the kiss of angels, so divine
There never was a day i wasnt sure
You'd forfeit life if that would be my cure

Oh dad, i wish that i could give you this:
The cure for all your illness with my kiss
So you could run just like you used to do
Or leap about like any kangaroo

I want so much to make you proud of me
To be as strong as i know you would be
If i was in your shoes for just one day
Please show how to take your pain away

And show me dad, how can i bear the pain
If you should leave and never come again
You know the truth, your punkin loves you so
Please daddy, take my love if you must go
