Papa Can You Hear Me
God our havenly father,
oh God and my father
who is also in heaven
May the light
of this flickerin candle
Illuminate the night the way
your spirit illuminates my soul.
Papa can you hear me
papa can you see me
papa can you find me in the night
Papa are you near me
papa can you hear me
papa can you help me not be frightened
Looking at the skies
I seem to see a million eyes
which ones are yours
Where are you now that yesterday
has waved goodbye
and close it's doors
The night is so much darker
the wind is so much colder
the world I see is so much bigger now that I'm alone
Papa please forgive me
try to understand me
papa dont't you now I had no choice
Can you hear me praying
anything I'm saying
even tough the night is filled with voices
I remember ev'rything you taught me
every book I've ever read
Can all the words in all the books
help me to face what lies ahead
The trees are so much taller
and I feel so much smaller
The moon is twice as lonely
and the stars are half as bright
Papa how I love you
papa how I need you
papa how I miss you
kissing me goodnight
