Memories of my wonderful Dad

Friday nights at the bingo hall, hoping to have a shout
Showing how much I loved you by stretching my arms out
The way that you used to say “Happy New Year”
Are some of the memories that I hold so dear

Sitting all round the table, playing games of Mah-jong
Afternoons playing the piano and singing along
Coming home to surprise you and seeing your smile
Your look of pride at my wedding as I walked down the aisle

Saturday nights and popping out for Chinese
Watching old movies, eating crackers and cheese
All of the film books we used to flick through
Wonderful memories that remind me of you

Singing ‘happy birthday’ whilst stood in the churchyard
The first birthday without you – finding it so hard
Love and miss you forever – but so proud that I had
Such a wonderful person like you for my dad
