Hi happy thanksgiving, how's everything going?do you miss me?Well yes i do, but i'm calling for a reasonOur thanksgiving is cut short, there will be no thanking this seasonHe's gone, he left on the sofa,in his sleep he just stopedand went somewhere else.How can i say this i've gotta tell his daughter,We just went out shopping, had some fun girls' stylenow i have to tell her that,you'll be walking her down the isleAs much as i hated and love him,he was the only one i had.i didn't say it then so now,i love you dad.
