I watch him work with steady eyes
The sun creeps down, but still he tries
to seal that pipe and stop the leak
so he won't have to return this week.
Another round of blue glue on...
that did the trick, the leak is gone!
He proudly packs his tools away,
blows the drive and we're done for the day.
My hands are dirty, my hair is a mess
My back is hurting and I need a rest
but no matter what time I spend with my dad,
it's always one of the best times I've had.
With the windows rolled down and the radio on
we crank up the music and both sing along.
He smiles at me, saying "I'm proud of my girl."
...no, I wouldn't trade this for the world.
