You Are My Angel

You come running from your mother’s front door with your arms open wide Your smile beaming as you look me in the eyes The earth could open up and I would be there to catch you Holding you tight and making sure your dreams come true The heavens could open up with the most horrendous thunder storm And I would be there, umbrella in hand protecting from the rain and hailstorm The devil himself could climb up from the pits of hell And I would stand tall, strong and defeat him with god’s bombshell Because you are my angel, you are my daughter No father in the world would lead you to the slaughter Protecting you in life is my duty and hopefully I’m doing well at this You are my life! Your happiness brings me constant bliss When you are older and have your own family I hope you can look back And realise that you were always in my thoughts, I always kept your life on track From behind the scenes, pulling strings and protecting you from harm Making sure any persons meaning you pain would be silently disarmed Thank you for being my world and making every day worth while Thank you for being the inspiration of my life and making me smile
