The direction of my heart
Flows gracefully into yours
Peaceful thoughts and melodies
sing to me a chorus.
Beautiful day has risen
brightness from your soul doth shine
Into thine eyes so wondrously
Giving happiness so divine.
A gentle sweep of thy feet
Lands me honorably into your arms
holding me tight, yet sweetly
for I am taken by your charm.
No distinct way to hide
For it has been drawn deep within
The feeling that your smile gives
could be my desiring, eternal sin.
Mesmerized by your words
Though I've yet to hear the sound
I'm pleading with my heart
To allow your voice be found.
As day slowly fades
Night surrounds me fair
the thoughts of you engulf me
As I wish that you were there.
The parting of our hearts
Must be the longing for return
For everyday thy heart is weak
Tis for you that I yearn.

Days on the beach with our feet in the sand
The sun on our face, walking hand in hand.
The waves gently flowing up to the shore
These are the memories that daddies are for.

Sleeping peacefully, as you rock in your chair
Your breath softly sweeping through my long hair.
My thumb in my mouth, a smile on your face
I could never imagine being any other place.

There were days when we'd mingle out in the shop
Two very wise carpenters just doing their jobs.
I'd watch, as you worked, just building away
Following in your shadow  without a word to say.

You'd even take me hunting when ever you would go
Although this little mouth was quite the talking pro.
I may have scared the deer away more times than few
But it didn't seem to matter because I always went with you.

Days spent with daddy were diamonds and gold
In this little girls' heart she will always hold.
Now many miles between us, time is made few
I wish for one more day to walk hand in hand with you.

The times we use to share are branded in my heart
Memories lie deep within, they shall never part.
I keep them alive with thoughts everyday
Of my wonderful daddy in his own special way.
