You're my hero – 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 getting older
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
I’m so lucky to be me.

Dad, You’re my Hero.
