Like a dream you try to remember but it's gone then you try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn when you try to see the world, beyond your front door take your time, is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile when you realize that a guy my size might take a while just to try to figure out what all this is for...this song will always remind of you dad! So many memories I cannot believe it is one year today since you took your last breath we love you and we miss you listening to your favorite songs today and making Christmas cookie platters ..love u dad.

I want to thank you for so many gifts you gave
The love, the tenderness, I want to thank you
I want to thank you for your generosity, the love
And the honesty that you gave me
I want to thank you show my gratitude
My love, and my respect for you, I want to thank you
