I've been broken but that's not through choice

It's times like these that I wish you were here
Because dad I hope you know that when you're near

I feel safe, warm and on top of the world
We can climb the highest mountains and not be heard

That's fine by me as long as everyone knows
My love for you only continues to grow

The laughter shared and memories made
I think about them from day to day

Like the time you helped me ride my first bike
Or when I smashed the window and you said "it's alright"

You've never doubted me since the day I smiled
Even the day's I cried you knew all the while

I would grow into a strong person, full of dreams
But they've left me since you had to leave

Even if you're not next to me on those dark, rainy days
I'll have love for you Dad, forever and for always

It's been five long years since I've heard your voice
I've been broken but that's not through choice

It's times like these that I wish you were here
Because dad I hope you know that when you're near

I feel safe, warm and on top of the world
We can climb the highest mountains and not be heard

That's fine by me as long as everyone knows
My love for you only continues to grow

The laughter shared and memories made

But they've left me since you had to leave

Even if you're not next to me on those dark, rainy days
I'll have love for you Dad, forever and for always
