Direction
The lighthouse
A Father’s Day card never received
An apology never heard
It said “even in the stormiest weather you are a guiding light”
It said “thank you, for always being there”
Words I will never forget
You taught me so much
You taught us all so much
I want to make you proud
The lighthouse
A Father’s Day card never received
An apology never heard
Sometimes I don’t know which way to turn
I loose my sense of direction
I can feel so lost
You were our guiding light
But that doesn’t mean I’m surrounded by darkness
I will find my way
The lighthouse
A Father’s Day card never received
An apology never heard
Grief comes in waves
But the tide always returns
We will keep our heads above water
I will try
For you
But this is something I need to do for myself too
