Dad I know you were sad when you died |
[00:07.15] |
And I was young it's the way I kept you in my mind |
[00:17.13] |
The mess that was left and my mother cried |
[00:22.89] |
And when she stood up she was nobody's mother |
[00:27.14] |
I'd be fine |
[00:30.56] |
But I missed you then |
[00:32.81] |
And I miss you now |
[00:35.09] |
Liked you'd missed things I might say |
[00:39.55] |
You're still lost in clouds but I'm older now |
[00:43.95] |
I can see through lifting haze |
[00:49.39] |
That you were away even when you were here |
[01:03.93] |
Sometimes a phrase or a manner that's you |
[01:09.28] |
Comes through me, it goes in a flash |
[01:12.32] |
It's a frame, it's a blink like life |
[01:18.81] |
Oh and how much now should we pay for the past |
[01:25.48] |
Cause you could age with grace if I freed you in my mind |
[01:33.52] |
But I loved you then |
[01:35.15] |
And I love you now |
[01:37.55] |
All the things I wished I'd asked |
[01:42.19] |
When I'm lost in clouds |
[01:44.39] |
I remember how I was robbed and I was blessed |
[01:52.08] |
And you were away even when you were here |
[01:58.16] |
Cause it's not about you, not you, anymore |
[02:07.40] |
It's about what I'd do with it all |
[02:13.91] |
And I, I'll never let you let me down |
[02:39.44] |
This morning I wake to be older than you were |
[02:45.54] |
Flash I'll smell for miles, every footstep would be mine |
[02:52.69] |
You'd have lost that weight, you'd have gone so straight |
[02:56.95] |
You'd have made my wedding day |
[03:01.47] |
You'd have saved my youth from that point of truth |
[03:05.86] |
You'd have kept those wolves at bay |
[03:11.12] |
But you were away, you were away even when you were here |
