Daddy

It’s a happy day in heaven
But a sad day here on Earth
Cause today my daddy’s gone
And I couldn’t feel worse

But up in heaven the angels are singing
Cause my daddy just arrived
While I’m down here crying cause I cant explain
Why today my daddy died

My daddy died
I never had a chance to say goodbye
My daddy died
And I don’t know how I’ll keep living
My daddy died
And so I sleep knowing I will cry
But I know its going to be a happy day in heaven

I would have never thought that I could
Miss my daddy so much
But now that he’s gone I’d give my life
Just to feel his loving touch

I know it’s too late for sorrys
But I still apologize
For never understanding why people cry
On the day their daddy dies

My daddy died
But his memories will never be forgotten
My daddy died
He was a gift that kept on giving
My daddy died
I know his life is just starting
And I know its going to be a happy day in heaven

Its been three years since I saw you last
But some days I still cry
And one day will always live in my mind
The day I saw you die

In that last moment when I felt so helpless
As I watched you approach your death
And you mouthed “I love you, son”
With your dying breath

My daddy died
But I know that he’s still with me
My daddy died
He gave me something to believe in
My daddy died
But when he parted, I should have been happy you see

Because I know it must have been the happiest day in heaven
