Stairway To Heaven

I wish the Gods would create a stairway, that would lead me straight to You. 
To spend special days like these above the sky so blue 

I would do the things we lost out on back when I was just a child 
And capture every moment of your ever beautiful smile.

I would write down every moment and new memory that we make.
And read it every time my heart starts to ache. 

I’ll never ever get tired of hugging You all day. 
As Your arms are my favourite place I wish I could forever stay. 

But for now Dad I can just keep wishing and praying that this comes true. 
As I cannot wait for the day that I’ll start to spend forever again with You.
