[Intro]
Ten years gone by, still feels so near
Daddy, your voice I still hear
Memories like shadows on the wall
In my heart, I still hear your call
[Verse 1]
You were the real foundation, the strength I held on to
Guided me with your wisdom, told me what to do
Since you left, the house feels colder
Lost my way, my world grows older
Your little boy still misses you
Wishing you were here, Daddy, it's true
[Pre-Chorus]
Every night I pray, hoping for a sign
Your lessons in my soul, I hold them all the time
I wish I could dial your number just to hear your voice
But I’m lost in the silence, haunted by my choice
[Chorus]
Daddy, why did you go so early?
Left me here, so lonely, so unworthy
I need your guidance, your comfort, your light
Lost in the darkness of this endless night
Your little boy misses you, wait for the day
When I can see you, hear what you’d say
Daddy, I need you more than words can show
Your love is the seed in my heart that still grows
[Bridge]
Taught me to be brave, taught me to be kind
But life’s cruel lessons left me behind
Survivor of pain that no child should bear
Your spirit’s in me, Daddy, everywhere
[Outro]
So I hold onto hope, I carry your name
In every scar and every pain
Until the day we meet again
Daddy, my hero, my best friend
Ten years, but I still feel you near
In every heartbeat, I hold you dear
