This song










Here Daddy, is the song I chose for our Father Daughter dance. It reminds me so perfectly of how you made me feel as I grew. You made me feel radiant and without flaw. You asked that we dance to "Sunrise, Sunset" (Is this the little girl I carried?) but I do so wish you had heard this song.

Love you to pieces and miss you to the moon and back,

Reachel



LYRICS

If you leap awake

In the mirror of a bad dream

And for a fraction of a second

You can't remember where you are

Just open your window

And follow your memory upstream

To the meadow in the mountain

Where we counted every falling star

I believe the light that shines on you

Will shine on you forever

And though I can't guarantee

There's nothing scary hiding under your bed

I’m gonna stand guard

Like a postcard of a Golden Retriever

And never leave till I leave you

With a sweet dream in your head

I'm gonna watch you shine

Gonna watch you grow

Gonna paint a sign

So you'll always know

As long as one and one is two

There could never be a father

Who loved his daughter more than I love you

Trust your intuition

It's just like going fishing

You cast your line

And hope you'll get a bite

But you don't need to waste your time

Worrying about the market place

Try to help the human race

Struggling to survive its harshest night

Gonna paint a sign

So you'll always know

As long as one and one is two

There could never be a father

Who loved his daughter more than I love you

I'm gonna watch you shine

Gonna watch you grow

Gonna paint a sign

So you'll always know

As long as one and one is two

There could never be a father

Who loved his daughter more than I love you

Adem, I hope you get your little girl in August. What a daddy's girl she will be. Carl asked me to remind you again to eat right and excercise so you can be around till your 90. Obviously he has not seen this picture of you hauling a truck out of the river with your bare hands!
