Son's Silent Love

When n we grew , We just never knew...
What we had in a dad just like you ...
Off to sea, .. Away you'd flee......
we just knew ,.... It was what you had 
to do........

Lost months here , Lost months there...
We just never knew we had a dad like you ..
It wasn't your fault .. You missed so much ...

When you'd return, Then we'd know , we 
Had a great dad like you ......
pale and thin,.. Sack on your back......
Arm's opened wide ... Pressies on your back..
Smelling so different , But then we knew ...
what it was like having a great dad like you ..

Now we've grown, ...Its time to show ......
What it's like having a great dad just like you ..

Your always there , ... When we need you most .
Dashing and Bashing , never stopping , Always in a 
rush , never time to hush,.....
That’s what it's like having a Dad like you ...

Now Your our dad , And a granddad too ....
Its time to say, ....... Dad we love you ........
Slow down, relax Enjoy those special moment ,
Cause its great having a dad just like you ...

This is our way off showing how special you are ..
So we thank you today on your special day...
For all you have done , From your son's ............
