The Perfect Song

I'm always trying to find the perfect song to sum up how much I miss my Dad.

There are so many, but only a few that really resonate with me throughout the entire song. Mainly, "One More Day" by Diamond Rio. I think every single lyric just perfectly speaks to what I dream for, beginning with the very first line. (I have the most crazy, vivid dreams that I almost always remember).

Last night I had a crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me
It could be for anything
I didn't ask for money
Or a mansion in Malibu
I simply wished, for one more day with you

One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again
I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

First thing I'd do, is pray for time to crawl
Then I'd unplug the telephone
And keep the TV off
I'd hold you every second
Say a million I love you's
That's what I'd do, with one more day with you

One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again
I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you
Leave me wishing still, for one more day
Leave me wishing still, for one more day 

But I think I have a new fave. The chorus is just perfect. It's called "Live Forever" and it's by Drew Holcomb And The Neighbors. You will love it, check it out...
