HEY, MR. GOD, COULD
YOU DO ME A FAVOR?
Sometimes at night, when I’m lying in my bed
I think about my childhood and I really miss my Dad
I don’t have him anymore to make me forget about my fears
And I also wish he was still here so he would dry all of my
tears.
He was the best friend I could have ever had
And I know he’ll be by my side, as he always said
Mom says now he’s feeling better in Heaven
But I’m still sad, because I don’t see him since I’m seven
He used to say that I look like a butterfly
And when I see one of it, I try hard not to cry
Sometimes I ask God why he took him so early
But God never answers me (and people still say he’s lovely!)
Now I wish he was right, I wish I was a butterfly
Or, at least, become one, so I would be able to fly high
I really wish I could fly and magically appear and disappear
So, in a blink of an eye, I’d fly far away from here
I don’t think I’m asking for much; I don’t want to be a
millionaire
And if God gave me a lot of money I would really like to
share
But I’m not asking for that; there’s only one thing I’d like
to do
If I could meet my Dad again, I would tell him ‘I love you’.
