Leroy

You were the strongest man I ever knew

A steady hand that always pulled me through

You never hesitated, never thought twice

Putting your daughter first all of my life

Leroy, you carried the weight of it all

Always the first one to answer my call

Oh Daddy, I miss you more than words can say

I carry your love with me every day

You were the best dad, my hero, my friend

And I can't wait to see you again

Yeah, I know I will see you again

I can still smell the smoke from the barbecue grill

Hear your laugh in the yard when the evening is still

You were always pulling up, coming by for a stay

Making time for us, never too far away

And the way that you loved on your grandkids with pride

With a big, gentle smile that you never could hide

Oh Daddy, I miss you more than words can say

I carry your love with me every day

You were the best dad, my hero, my friend

And I can't wait to see you again

Yeah, I know I will see you again

The days feel a little too quiet right now

But I'm holding the love that you left me somehow

Your strength is the compass that guides me along

Whenever I'm hurting, you make me feel strong

Oh Daddy, I love you more than words can say

I carry your memory with me every day

You were the best dad, my hero, my friend

And I can't wait to see you again

Leroy, I'll see you again
