Lyrics

Father, oh
Father, hear me if
You canIs 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 nowI'd give anything to go on a little boat with
YouTalk about the scheme of things
On a little boat with
YouFather, oh
Father, guide me if
You canOr give me the chance to follow
You homeI am
Your son but
I wish I knew
YouWhen You were young were
You lonely as a boy?
You know I'd give so much to see
You nowI'd go anywhere, pick a little stick and walk with
YouTalk about the scheme of things
On a short walk with
YouFather, 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
YouTalk about the scheme of things
On a small rock with
YouShow 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 canIs it true what they say that life is a dream?
