If I could have another day.

 

If I could have another day, I'd tell you how I feel today.

I would not try to rush away I'd be in the moment with you and stay.

Memories to make again will no longer be what could of been.

I'd hold a hug and and take your hand.

You would ask me to stay longer and Id respond “I can”.

If I could have another minute, there would not be a second without you in it.

We could go to the zoo and to the park and eat italian beef sandwiches when it gets dark. 
I would laugh and smile and be happy again, if I could just have what I had then.

I could tell you what I never said and not be sad.

I'd tell you how I am so blessed and honored that you are my dad.
