Lyrics

PAPA


Papa, you taught me how to laugh, live, love and give
You lived your life full steam ahead, while giving all you had to those you loved
Your laugh was it contagious and your smile soothed any troubles in my world
I thought you’d live forever .......... and in my heart you always will

Chorus:
When I got the call that you were gone I know didn’t know how I could bear the pain
But like so many times before your love came through to comfort me again


Not a day goes by I don’t recall a lesson learned from you
Camping at the lake, or in the hills, or at our family meals
You let me learn my own life lessons, while you calmly had my back
Words alone cannot express .......... my love and gratitude for you

Chorus

Coda:
Oh, like so many times before your love came through to comfort me again
Papa, you taught me how to laugh, live, love and give
