If you were around,
Growing up would have been easier,
I would have gotten the wisdom your father gave you
Dearly departed father I miss you
As Luther Vandross says he wishes to dance with his father
I wish to sit in your lab one more time,
I want to hear your wise words one more time
Dearly departed father I need you in my life
Dearly departed father, I wish you were here to advise me,
I see women I don’t know how to approach them,
Dearly departed father I hope you were here,
So that you may give me those pickup lines you told my mother.
Dearly departed father,
I wish you were here to name my children,
I wish you were here to hold my hand,
Dearly departed father I wish your presence was more in my life.
