Freshlyground - Father Please lyrics

Daddy please don't go- I couldn't face this lonely world without you Father please don't go- I couldn't walk this mortal coil without you here Through these dark and empty streets Past the strangers with their secrets wrapped around them like a cloak; I long for you In the silence of their grief in the sadness in their eyes I creep around these broken walls and call for you Daddy please don't go I couldn't face this lonely world without you Father please don't go I couldn't walk this mortal coil… I move past a man without a face Who turns away as though my touch would be the thing to bring him down, oh so down As he starts to disappear I think I hear him call my name and whisper, "Daughter, don't you understand by now?" Even as I walk these quiet streets you call to me Even as I walk these tired feet you speak to me
