He's Always Been There

He’s always been there Throughout the years, Making me laugh And wiping away my tears. He’s always been there Teaching me how to stand, Encouraging me to try Telling me I can. He’s always been there To chase away my fear, Shielding me from the monsters I was sure would appear. He’s always been there To catch me when I fall, Encouraging me to be strong And always stand tall. He’s always been there Believing in my dreams, Listening with a smile When I let off steam. He’s always been there Protecting me from harm, Spoiling my children With his grandpa charm. He’s always been there A treasure from above, He’s not just my dad He’s the father I love.
