He was my hero when I was young
Now he's just a bigger one
He loved my Mother for 65 years
He made her happy, He dried her tears
They raised four Daughters
And made A nice home
He worked two jobs to give her
All that he owned
She loved him so
He was her sweetheart you know
And when the rest of the world
Slowly slipped away
In her heart he always stayed
They shared a life through thick and thin
He cared for her, she cared for him
and when she lost all she knew
He stayed beside her strong and true
So here's to you Dad, I love you so
And just in case you didn't know
You were my hero when I was young
But now you're just a bigger one.
