Hello Tan, It's Me, Dad

Hello Tan, it’s me, Dad Memories flood my mind since you've been gone Hearing your voice in my head lingers on Fun times when we made lemon pound cake together I could always confide in you, you made things better Hello Tan, it’s me, Dad I keep hearing you say this in my head Feeling heartbroken with grief-stricken dread Thanksgiving Day will never be the same I wish I could still hear you call my name Hello Tan, it’s me, Dad You cultured me and taught me about life Your family values helped me become a good wife You always pushed me to excel and strive And taught me to enjoy life while I am alive Hello Tan, It’s me, Dad I wish we could spend just one more day But Your fate was planned another way Never to hear you say again, feeling sad Hello Tan, it’s me, Dad
