Time with Daddy

"Walk a little slower Daddy" said a child so small,

"I'm following in your footsteps, and I do not want to fall"

Sometimes your steps are very fast,

Sometimes they're hard to see;

So walk a little slower Daddy,

For you are leading me.

Some day when I'm all grown up,

You're what I want to be;

Then I will have a little child,

Who will want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right,

And know that I was true;

So walk a little slower Daddy,

For I must follow you.
