While you were away Dad !! Winters came by

While you were away Dad !! Winters came by

Air was cold and water just froze,

I sat alone in bed, and no one kissed me good nigh…

While you were away Dad !!, Winters came by…

Last Sunday, I fell from the bike,

I looked around, but you were nowhere to be found,

I stood on my own, brushed the dirt from my thigh…

While you were away Dad !! Winters came by

A week before, I got my stars,

Class stood to clap and the report was hung in hall,

Teacher said, your Dad will have his head high…

I shivered and smiled, but you know,

While you were away Dad !! Winters came by…

Mom says, you are out in lands of torn,

Clowning day & night to keep us warm,

I know in my heart, that you are not shy, but

While you were away Dad !! Winters came by…
