Song Lyrics

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
