Clara Lofaro - Daddy's Song lyrics

Vs1: It's too late to finish school I don't want to anymore Life has made me much wiser Than I'd ever hoped for The walls are getting wider Empty of the things I never did become Full of those I thought I dreamed Chorus: And the children are waiting for my wish this year Feeling safe to have me with them still And I know nothing else matters as I blow out the light Cause my babies are dancing with me tonight My babies are dancing with me Vs2: I rushed through the moments Never wasted a dime Lived right by the Bible As if nothing was mine They've all but one left me To learn how to swim In this ocean of stillness In this life I am in CHORUS Bridge: It's a gamble We all know Try our best And just go Vs3: And if he were here with me now I'd say, "Daddy you work too hard. Come and play with me a while." But songbooks just aren't written that way We fall with the avalanche with nothing to say Chorus And the children are waiting for my wish this year Feeling safe to have me with them still And I know nothing else matters as I blow out the light Cause my angels are dancing with me tonight My angels are dancing with me tonight The angels are dancing with me (Reginella Campagnola -italian traditional)
