johnny clegg – father lyrics
[verse 1]
b-ttons from a uniform
a cartridge from the war
letters to my mother
hidden in a drawer
all around me empty sp-ce
never filled by a father’s face
in my mind he’s strong and warm
i like the picture i have drawn
[chorus]
he’s a shadow man
he’s my father
he’s the hidden link in my chain
he’s a shadow man
he’s my father
he’s the one who lives inside my name
i’m the only link in the chain
[verse 2]
fragments of memories
from other people’s lives
gather and collect them
to see my father’s eyes
eyes to see the future come
eyes to see the past
eyes to see his only son
from whom he was cast
[chorus]
he’s a shadow man
he’s my father
he’s the one who lives inside my name
he’s a shadow man
he’s my father
i’m the only link in the chain
[verse 3]
what you gonna be when you grow up?
how you gonna fill that empty cup?
be strong and hold your head up high
teach yourself how to fly
[chorus]
he’s a shadow man
he’s my father
he’s the one who lives inside my name
he’s a shadow man
he’s my father
i’m the only link in the chain
