Father
(02/18/2009)
(A)
Father? Can you tell me?
Why that women cries those tears?
Father? Cant you help her?
Its the unknown that she fears?
Father? She seems so lonely.
Is it all because of me?
Father? Cant you help her?
Find some peace, set her free?
[Break]
(A)
Father? Can you tell me?
Why that man there, sits alone?
Father? Is there a reason
that his hopes have all but flown?
Father? He seems so helpless,
is it all because of me?
Father? Is there a reason?
That neither one cant be set free?
(Bridge)
For the briefest moment
the three of us were one.
But time was short, I soon had to fly.
No more nights and lullabies.
We had only just begun.
I might understand but when day is done. [hold note....]
(A)
Father? Is there an answer?
Or away for them to know?
Father? Theyre believers.
Yet question why this is so?
Father? Ive accepted,
Ill take my place upon your knee.
Father? Cant you help them
and all others so they may see?
Father? Can you help them
find their peace and set them free?
