My Friend, my Hero, my Dad

I’ll bet you didn’t know you were my hero
I don’t think I’ve told you until now.
But you were the one who shaped my future
And I’d like to tell you how.

Everything you did was good for me
Nothing was ever for your own gain
You took the time to teach me and to love me
Without you, I wouldn’t be the same.

I don’t know how I was given such a blessing
You were everything I needed you to be.
Someone to watch over me always
And Dad, you’ll always be a hero to me.
