Happy Birthday Daddy

Happy Birthday Daddy,
I'm missing you today.
You're not here beside me,
'Cos God took you away.

I'll blow out your candles,
And make a wish for you.
Maybe if I wish hard enough,
My wish will come true.

I wish to be with you again,
To see your smiling face.
To hug you one more time,
Be caught in your embrace.

The first year was the hardest,
But now I've learned to deal.
Time has taken away the hurt,
Though the wounds never fully heal.

It's a hard life without you,
I needed you by my side.
But I'll have to carry on without you,
Live through this rough ride.

Happy Birthday Daddy,
You'd be 49 today.
But you're not here beside me,
'Cos God took you away.
