A True Dad
December 2, 2011
Play-fighting and telling jokes
Tickles, giggles, and silly pokes
Tucking me in and hugging me tight
Saying you love me before turning off the light
Watching scary movies and not being scared at all
A feeling you'll catch me if ever I fall
Coming up with cute little nicknames
Thinking the other is sometimes a pain
I know you're here to stay
And you're gonna be the one to give me away
Thanks for always being there for me
Thanks for being the dad you didn't have to be.
