me,

style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center">Or given advice to help, and that was once
free.

style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center">I still remember the love that embraced my
frame,

style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center">Being scolded when things went wrong and I was to blame.

protect,

class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center">And showing me how to overcome any difficult
project.

class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center">Playing and joining in my adventures when I was a
child,

style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center">And always by my side, there to give that loving
smile.

class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center">My love for you will last for ever I know you'll be
glad,

style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center"> You
are not only my friend but also my
Dad!

style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center"> That passion and care you have given to me,

style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"
align="center"> Will remain in my heart, and there always
will be.
