The Perfect Man

The As I drive down this highway mile after mile

As I drive down this highway, mile after mile

I'm thinking about all the things I haven’t done in quite awhile

All of these memories of my childhood keep running through my mind

I can’t believe that your gone, I thought we had so much more time

I can’t believe that just hours from now

I’ll have to say goodbye and I’m just not sure how

Everything that has happened has put my life in perspective

Like the way I was living, and the responsibilities I’ve neglected

Life is fragile, that’s a lesson I’m learning well

But you won’t be coming back and that hurts me like hell!

I can still hear your voice say: “Daddy Loves You” and see the love in your eyes

I hear it over and over and I can’t help but cry

Dad you have always been my hero, you could do ANYTHING I swear

My mom used to say: “Your just like your dad!”, I’d say I didn’t care

I didn’t want to hurt her feelings, but I felt a sense of pride

Because every time I heard those words, I knew that she was right

Your mission in life was to be a good father, and you told me you felt like you failed me

The truth is dad, you didn’t fail at ANYTHING, I hope now that’s something you see

I’m not mad at you, I know your no longer in pain

I know you and Kota are watching over us and all of this didn’t happen in vain

I don’t know how to accept the fact that your really gone

I know that I will have to before long

I will say this now, and it will always stand

That in my eyes Dad

You were the perfect man…

RIP DAD
