My Father

Tears burn my gentle face What hurts me the most Is knowing there's nothing I can do But look up at the midnight sky And pray you know how much I miss you My first heartbreak and you weren't there The first time I walked down the stairs I wanted you to see me See me through the bad days See me through the good My smiles and laughs All my mistakes You're not there to guide me like you should But what hurts the most Is I know you would be here holding me tight If only you could The heavens are lucky They took the best of me I'm holding onto you
