A Father's Love

A Father’s love I never had

How I wish he would kiss my head

Tell me things will be alright

Hold my hand and be by my side

I block the pain and ignore my thoughts

It all comes back, sadness fills my heart

This wish I know will never come true

Cause I’ve been wishing all my life for you

If you’re a man and you have a child

Hold them tight and make them smile

Take the time to understand

A Father’s love is what makes you a man
