Freshlyground - 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..x2

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..

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..x2
