A Dear Dear Friend
I was really disappointed today
Was supposed to meet a dear dear friend
Things got in the way and sadly
Had to postpone our meeting again
I'm adopting her as my daughter
An honour that I accept with pride
Sadly her relationship with her real dad
Was very much on the rocky side
So I'm the fortunate benefactor
Of a soul that's longing this connection
I'm truly only too happy to oblige
As I shower her with affection
A real sweetie this dear dear friend
My undying love runs deep
Adore this girl more than words can say
With tears of joy, I weep
She's happily married with kids of her own
But there's been a void in her life
So honoured to be her replacement dad
Sure didn't have to think twice
