Father's Day

The First Man I Loved

I remember standing on your feet as you taught me to dance
And walking along side of you as a little girl
I remember sitting on the counter as you fixed my many bumps and bruises
And the way you stayed so calm.
I remember being so happy when you came home from work
And running into your arms

Dad you were the first man I danced with
The first man who loved me
And the first man I loved

I remember the quiet ways you would show your love
And the joy in your eyes when I succeed
I remember the way you love my Mother
And knowing I wanted a man that loved me the same way
I remember seeing the smile on your face as we danced at my wedding
And seeing that you were proud of your little girl

Dad you were the first man to show me how to love
The first man I looked up to
And the first man I loved
