Since I was small
Till I became tall
Since I began to understand things
Till the day I got my own wings
Your love has never fallen short
You've been my support
Throughout the challenging days
You walked before me when I was little
To set an example for me
When I became a teenager
You walked behind me
To always be there should I need you
And when I became an adult
You walk with me as a friend
Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn
Hundreds of bees in the clover
Just a father and the world is complete
Life doesn't come with a manual
It comes with a father
All that I ever am and hope to be
I owe it all to you
A heart to hate you is as far away as the moon
And a heart to love you is as near as the door
You're the best thing that ever happened to me, dear father.
