Father Please

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 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 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 long 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 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 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
