My Daughters Just Like Me

i knew you loved her i could see it in your eyes your wife sometimes called her fleur sleeping where she often lies i saw the way you touched her hair and you laughed when she learn't to walk you hoped that she would'nt have a care and how delighted you were when she began to talk and when she would stay with you i'd have no worries not at all i knew that love,thats oh!so true not a man i know could walk so tall boy if she could see you now she would still feel the same to feel such a heady love and how it all seems such a shame but i still have my memory it will be totally honest and true and caring as bygone hereditary i'll be upfront and ernest about you you were the grandad she never had and she loves you still but you were special your my dad and i love you and always will.
