Tears in your eyes As you tell the story Of rocking me to sleep Mozart Bach Brahms Midnights in January Fussy cries subdued By the New York philharmonic Or the Boston pops Depending on the season Late night shifts Robert frost open On your lap Sharing stories I couldn’t yet grasp And yet now Are ones that I carry inside My heart Take the road less traveled It’s always there Lying before me Like the countless hours And moments together That I cannot even recall My luck to have a father like you Is greater than A four leaf clover A horseshoe overflowing With daisies A rabbits foot I’m not sure what life I lived But I’m glad in this one You are dad.
