If I ever get a chance...

I wrote this for my daughter from jail in 1991, tears included

If I ever get a chance
I'd love to watch you as you dance
I'd love to be there as you grow
or maybe dance for me
and while I'm gone I wonder as,
I wonder if I'll get a chance
I wonder if I'll ever see
My daughter smile for me
but times are hard, I know they are
but while they are their wonderful
an that's just what I want you to know
it's what I want you to see
So smile my Dear, I know you can
I'd like to smile and be your friend
although I'm not there to see you smile
Please won't you smile for me?
so if by chance I get a chance
with God's grace, through his open hands
I ‘ll soon come home to be with you
and have you dance with me...
Daddy...early 1991
