Dear Dad,
Happy birthday! I love you so much! It's been 10 years since you were gone. You know it hurts too much when we lost you but I know that you are better where you are now in the hands of our loving God.
There are so many things I still wanted to say to you and things that I really wish that we could have done together. So many things that I wanted to learn from you.
I wish that you are still here. I know that if you are still alive, life would be different. I wish that you have met my husband and he wishes the same. It would be lovely if you have seen my daughter and my son. I know you are better where you are. It is just wishful thinking.
I am sorry if I did not understand well, I was so young. I could have gone home early during those college days so you don't have to worry about me. I am sorry that sometimes I am too stubborn to follow. But I wanted you to know that you are the best dad. If again I will be born I would still ask to have you as my dad.
I am and will ever be grateful that God gave you to me, to us, It was a wonderful time together. I love you, daddy! We love you!
And oh, I cook this for your birthday!
I dedicate this song to you.
You are the wind beneath my wings. You taught me and let me learn how to fly with flying colors.
Oh, oh, oh, oh -
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine,
that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.
So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strain.
A beautiful face without a name for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
but I've got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth,
of course, I know it.
I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you,
the wind beneath my wings
