I'm ready now to reveal my pain
The day, dad died
No one, nor I
Will ever feel the same

You would have been so proud,
So many friends, family lining the streets,
The policemen bowed

I miss you dad
Can you hear these words?
I'm talking out loud
It seems unreal to others, to me absurd

I have one wish, that will never come true,
So I go to my dreamland instead
Where I'll always find you.

And even though we lost the battle to the cancer.
I'm proud I had the chance to be your number one son.
