Lyrics

I Am Your Father

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sensitive boy, military father

Both of them needing something very badly from the other

They had no choice; they could not reach eachother

Now the boy's an angry man; he holds it in no longer

(He says) I could never win anything 'cause I already felt beaten

And you have always hated me so I guess now we're even

So look at me now - I'm not afraid to fight you man to man

And the old man says

I am your father

I am not another

Of your schoolboy classmates

I am your father

And you will not forget me

I will stay part of you forever

Listen to my side

Looking back I wonder

Why I couldn't feel for you the way I felt about your brothers

And there were times

I'm sure you still remember

When I tried to talk to you and you left me an outsider

I avoid painful things so you were avoided

And I never really hated you, just sometimes dissappointed

So look at me now

Am I the same as the man you love to hate?

No matter what....

I am your father

I am your father

And you can mess up my face - go ahead

But I'll still be your father

And you cannot forget me

I will stay part of you forever

I could never look at you and say I love you

I was taught that real men never broke down

I feel like a victim I know you do too

Like father like son

I'm so sorry for the things I've done

I am your father

I am your father

Come what may

I'll be part of you forever
