Father of Mine

from arc en ciel by Vinnie Ferra

/

lyrics

You’re leaving your mark while I find my way
Through the dark and through the shame

When I walk upon, I see that I don't belong
And suddenly it all seems so wrong

And when you go, you will know...

That I will become
More than just your son
More than a man
Who once, cost you so much

For me once,
And many times before
You would adjust
And you would always be kind….

Father of mine
You wouldn't laugh
When I would cry
The memories hurt
From when I was nine
Wish you could breath
Like your lungs were mine

At just seventeen, I saw my dreams
I learned how to adjust so I could feed my needs

With you almost gone, it is clear
Why I should now shed a tear

Your will is mine
To execute

When you’re away
Don't forget to say
You were once a great father
Once a great father

I will get you home
So you can be alone
With all that is yours
And will all become mine

Father I will cry
When you are gone
I will have died
You gave me life
You gave it your all
So I could have
So much to call

It’s hard to believe
That you could cry
I've never seen
Someone I love die
Now with you gone
I will leave my pride
I will be always kind
Father of mine

My only wish before you go
Is I could see that smile
So I could know
That I am still your child
