Father

Father oh father

Hear me if you can

Is it true what they say

That life is a dream

I don't understand

The things that make rain in my eyes

Are they real or are they lies



You know i hear so much about you now

I'd give anything

To go on a little boat with you

Talk about the scheme of things

On a little boat with you



Father oh father

Guide me if you can

Or give me the chance to follow you home

I am your son but i wish i knew you

When you were young

Were you lonely as a boy



You know i'd give so much to see you now

I'd go anywhere

Pick a little stick and walk with you

Talk about the scheme of things

On a short walk with you



Father oh father

You give me just a little hope

I feel something out there reaching for me

Well here i am

Won't you take me with you

Out of this maze

And away from this place



Because it gets so cold and lonely here

I'll do anything

To sit on a little rock with you

Talk about the scheme of things

On a small rock with you



Show me show me show me the way

Before they grind me down

And bleach me grey

Send me power not to be afraid

And when i close my eyes

Let me see you once in the light



Father oh father

Heal me if you can

Is it true what they say

That life is a dream
