In a perfect world,
death would never be.
Love would be forever,
and last eternally.
In a perfect world,
you’d still be by our side,
lighting up our happy lives.
You never would have died.
When your loving heart stopped beating,
We were gathered round you weeping.
No wishes for you to stay,
To watch you weaken day by day.
We could all see quite clearly,
Though such courage, your body weary.
Once a man so lithe and strong,
Letting you go couldn't be wrong.
Though the pain cuts very deep,
Many tears we've yet to weep.
Thank god we were all there that day,
And Surrounded by our love you slipped away.
With perfect peace and such calm,
This will be our healing balm.
If everyone had a father
Who was more like you,
There'd be more laughing, joy and singing;
Fewer people would be blue.
The whole world would be blessed,
Just as I am blessed with you.
Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.
who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.
Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.
Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased Time will turn
But without hands.
If I could write a story
It would be the greatest ever told
Of a kind and loving father
Who had a heart of gold
If could write a million pages
But still be unable to say, just how
Much I love and miss him
Every single day
I will remember all he taught me
I'm hurt but won't be sad
‘coz he'll send me down.
I love you now
As I did back then
I just hope... one day
I will see you again
I am so proud of you
Brave and strong to the end
Now when asked “how are you?”
There is no need to pretend
Thank you, Dad, for being the loving father you were, for all you have given me, for being there for me
I love you with all my heart
