Father lyrics

Artist  : Cat Stevens 
Song : Father



 Send "Father" Ringtone to your Cell 

 
Father oh Father 
hear me if you can 
is it true what they say 
that life is a dream 
i don`t understand 
the things that make rain in my eyes 
are they real or are they lies 
  
you know i hear so much about you now 
i`d give anything 
to go on a little boat with you 
talk about the scheme of things 
on a little boat with you 
  
Father oh Father 
guide me if you can 
or give me the chance to follow you home 
i am your son but i wish i knew you 
when you were young 
were you lonely as a boy 
  
you know i`d give so much to see you now 
i`d go anywhere 
pick a little stick and walk with you 
talk about the scheme of things 
on a short walk with you 
  
Father oh Father 
you give me just a little hope 
i feel something out there reaching for me 
well here i am 
won`t you take me with you 
out of this maze 
and away from this place 
  
because it gets so cold and lonely here 
i`ll do anything 
to sit on a little rock with you 
talk about the scheme of things 
on a small rock with you 
  
show me show me show me the way 
before they grind me down 
and bleach me grey 
send me power not to be afraid 
and when i close my eyes 
let me see you once in the light 
  
Father oh Father 
heal me if you can 
is it true what they say 
that life is a dream
