Analysis of Father and friend
Dear father you are my guardian
My Angel pure and true
The heart I bring into your life
Comes from the light of you
We are the dancing stars
And we're the spinning moon
You are my father forever
Beyond each and every bloom
My gift to you is as special
As being in the same room
Knowing that you adore me
And are wrapping me in perfume
So when I say I love you
Each time you sing that tune
I mean you are my friend
Leaving love as vast as the sands
of every desert dune
