-
I watch out from the window
As your spirit drifts away.
I see you wave goodbye
But can't hear the whispered sobs of love
in your voice
You gave me much
a father daughter love
You called me princess
I feel the tears fall
faster than the rain
on this sad september day
I am only eight
yet I now bear a burden of the world
Losing a father
a hero
is such a great sin
Why did you leave
When I came to see you
I knew not it would be my last
The hurt I feel is great and the river of sorrow deep
I knew you loved me but yet
I fear that I know longer remeber why
I look at the clouds the enclose you from my view
I turn back to the wooden coffin
closed, covered with our great stripes and stars
I hear the round of guns outside, Giving you one last salute,
You were more than just a man
You were my father
and I miss you
So come to me in my dreams
Say one last final goodbye
Give me one last hug
One last little tug
I wish i could join you
One day we will be together
But untill then come say
one more final goodbye.
Hold me once more while I cry
Help me with my heavy soul
Lift the world off my young shoulders.
Help me fit in without being normal
Come be my father for one more night.
Just please one last time. ((goodbye))
