A Dad To Remember

You are a special part of my world
You have been since I was a little girl
You'd pick me up when I would fall
If I needed you, I knew I could call
As I got older and went to high school
I had some rough times, but you kept your cool
You always worked hard to give me the best
You did lots of things with little rest
No matter what, you've always been there
To lend a hand, to show you care
So many times you've gone out of your way
To put a smile on my face and brighten my day
Although you're very far away
I think about you everyday
I've loved you from the very start
You have a special place in my heart
Distance can't break the bond that we share
Not as long as we know that we both care
I wish I could hug you, I really do
I hope you know how much I love you
