make do and mend - father lyrics
i watched the fireworks explode,
and from your shoulders i could see a different world.
no lies, no hate, no fear, no pain,
just flashes of blue and yellow flame.
i smiled, you smiled, but smiles can fade.
how am i a product of this man?
i’ve watched the sunrise on his skin;
i’ve felt the warm touch of his hand.
father i hope you understand,
that i’ve been running from your eyes,
but now i’m coming back again.
(father! )
calendar pages h-t the floor
counting the days and years before
sons become men, plans change, paths bend,
’til i’m not your little one anymore.
and the winters p-ss,
now i see your face in the mirrored gl-ss,
reminding me to slow down.
(well i’ve got to slow down)
’cause my early grays,
and the bags under my eyes prove the case
that i can’t handle the weight.
how am i a product of this man?
i’ve watched the sunrise on his skin;
i’ve felt the warm touch of his hand.
father i hope you understand,
that i’ve been running from your eyes,
but now i’m coming back again.
i don’t want to be here,
i don’t want to be here alone.
father it’s been to long,
take your son’s hand and walk me home.
and i watched the fireworks explode
father, father, father!
how am i a product of this man?
i’ve watched the sunrise on his skin;
i’ve felt the warm touch of his hand.
father i hope you understand,
that i’ve been running from your eyes,
but now i’m coming back again.
father i hope you understand,
that i’ve been running from your eyes,
but now i’m coming back again.
