Teresa James

I would ride on your shoulders And look out on the world

Pretending I was big and tall like you

When you were there to hold me I never was afraid

You made me feel there's nothing I can't do

If I'd spread my wings to fly When I was very small

I knew that you'd be standing by To catch me if I fall

You're my hero Chasing the monsters from my room

Going on trips around the moon The one who's always been there faithfully

You're my hero And 'cause you're my Dad..

I'm twice as blessed and lucky to be me

As I kept on growing We often disagreed

But you let me find myself in my own way And it's funny, how just lately

I've come to recognize How wise you are becoming every day

There's so much you've given me I hope I've made you proud

You're everything a Dad should be And it's time to tell you now

You're my hero You didn't have to say a word

Your love was the message that I heard Inspiring me to be all I can be

You're my hero And 'cause you're my Dad...

I'm twice as blessed and lucky to be me
