Dad
War lines drawn out in the sand
The world has been turning ever since
And I've too become a man
I thought I had it buried at last
Then I saw you alone at the bus stop
And I couldn't walk on past
Oh Dad
I've been there but you brought me back
And now what was once so tough becomes so brittle
And fragile
I remember I prayed that you would leave
Now seeing you sitting there has only caused me to grieve
Cracks in the walls and the dishes in the sink
I'm shaking the hand that hit me
And my anger turns to pity
Oh Dad
We lost what we never had
And I listen to the words
Of running scared
And blue bayou
Handle me with care
Well It's only the lonely
I guess you got it
Oh Dad
But I'm still your child
But I'm still your child
