My "Dudley" passed away November 2005. He was my dad. We had a love/hate relationship which is far too complex to get into now. But every little girl loves her daddy no matter what. He had problems like all of us - but he loved me. This much I know is true.
This is by the group Bread, which any of you over the age of 35 or so should remember. Music and Lyrics by David Gates.
You sheltered me from harm, kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me, set me free, set me free
The finest years I ever knew, were all the years I had with you
Chorus: I would give anything I own, give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give anything I own, just to have you back again
You taught me how to laugh, what it solved, what it solved
You never said too much, but still you showed the way
And I knew from watching you
Nobody else could ever know, the part of me that can't let go (chorus)
Is there someone you know, you're loving them so
But taking them all for granted
You may lose them one day, someone takes them away
And they don't hear the words you long to say (chorus) Just to touch you once again
