Dads - No We're Not Actually lyrics

Visits used to be on holidays and weekends now you’re always a phone call away from wherever you’re needed for emergency speakings A body on a stretcher, eyes rolled back and barely sleeping tears in your voice, I’m trying to keep you from weeping. Because everything will be fine, as long as I say so. And everything will go right, as long as I say so. There’s the prettiest view of the city from his bedside window if you ignore what they’re for, these machines make the most beautiful glow turn the lights out and go Pillows under his head, make sure there is a steady blood flow hold his hand tight, whisper goodbye slow Because everything will be fine, as long as we say so. And everything will go right, as long as we say so. So we’ll tell him to stay young Don’t die on me yet Because I can’t bear to see him like this again I keep thinking back to all of us in that kitchen on those mornings Steady nights of sleeping Steady nights of sleeping Steady nights of sleeping Oh how I miss those Oh how I miss you
