Daddy's Home, Poetry by Cher
Out the front door I stepped
As he pulled into the drive
His face covered full with hair
Like that of Santa's pride.
Who was this man before me?
My father's friend I was sure
I started off to tell him
That my father was not here.
So long gone was he away
To a child it seemed forever
Like a dream that never ended
But soon would get much better
With the puzzled look he gave
As I'm sure I had one too
He opened up his arms and said boy did I miss you!
Just like in a movie
My heart was pounding loudly
The longest foot I ever ran
into the arms of Daddy!
