Dennis

I still think about those mornings, tagging with you to work

You kept me on my toes with a sudden, funny smirk

You were loving, you were caring, beneath a quiet pride

And I felt like I could conquer the whole world by your side

You showed me how to keep my head up when the waters got rough

And taught me that a little bit of laughter is enough

I miss your laugh, I miss your hugs, the hours that we'd speak

Talking 'bout anything and everything, the advice I'd always seek

You're my dad, you are my hero, even though you had to go

I'll always be your Casey J, and I love you, Daddy-O

Out there fishing in the boat, casting lines into the blue

I learned that peace and comfort come from honest work you do

You taught me family is number one, the only thing that lasts

And I learned to choose a steady road from the shadows in the past

I saw the drinking and the drugs, and the toll they both could take

So I stay strong and motivated for my own family's sake

I miss your laugh, I miss your hugs, the hours that we'd speak

Talking 'bout anything and everything, the advice I'd always seek

You're my dad, you are my hero, even though you had to go

I'll always be your Casey J, and I love you, Daddy-O

I miss you more with every passing year, wish I said I loved you more

Wish you had the chance to know the two girls I adore

Chloe's shaping up so well, better than I ever could

Adalyn wishes she had met you, and I always knew she would

I hope Bowser keeps you company, out there on a stroll

With Grandpa and with Grandma, bringing comfort to your soul

I miss your laugh, I miss your hugs, the hours that we'd speak

Talking 'bout anything and everything, the advice I'd always seek

You're my dad, you are my hero, even though you had to go

I'll always be your Casey J, and I love you, Daddy-O

Yeah, I'll always be your Casey J, I love you, Daddy-O
