Light Of My Life

 

My Daughter

When my daughter walks into a room
All you can do is smile
Her happy little face can take away any gloom
Her chubby little cheeks
And her big bright eyes
Always seem to take away my sorrows and sighs
She loves to play outside
In the sun or the rain
She never worries about the weather
Or if she falls and is in pain
She loves her cartoons
And to listen and dance to music
She loves it at night to sit and stare at the moon
My daughter is always on the go
She never wants to rest
Which is easy to see why
her room is always a mess.
She loves her grandma most
Sometimes I think more then she loves her toast
She loves to color and draw
And help me with my chores
And to go shopping at different stores.
My daughter is the love of my life
I love every minute of my day
When my daughter comes to sit and play

In Your Heart

He was so proud of his little girl
It was her very first day of school
He walked with her to school that day
And she held his hand all the way
They walked together quiet and sad
A little girl and her loving dad
Into the school her father led
But he almost cried when she said
Daddy, Daddy please don't go
Don't leave me here all alone
I'll miss you if you go away
And I might need you, can't you stay
Little Daughter please don't cry
You'll be okay so dry your eyes
You have our memories in your heart
We're together though we're apart

He sat up front on her wedding day
And cried as his daughter walked away
Later that night he watched her dance
He sat there waiting for his chance
The band started to play their song
Father and daughter danced along
She looked at him and saw a tear
Then leaned and whispered in his ear
Daddy, Daddy I have to go
I hate to leave you all alone
I'll miss you when I go away
But if you need me then I'll stay
Little Daughter I'll be just fine
I'll love you always you are mine
I have our memories in my heart
We're together though we're apart

She came in his room and kissed his head
Then sat next to his hospital bed
He took her hand and held it tight
And wished he had the strength to fight
They sat together quiet and sad
A daughter and her dying dad
He saw the tears she tried to hide
She looked at him and then she cried
Daddy, Daddy please don't go
Don't leave me here all alone
I'll miss you when you go away
I still need you, you have to stay
Little Daughter I love you so
I want to stay but have to go
I'll always be here in your heart
We're together though we're apart
