Lyrics
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.
The fire caught us burning
With desire to get out in the open
My daddy had a camera
And he caught a few moments to show them
The fire took us higher
We were hoping to expire when you came in
With water
With water
We were only kids
When we first laid eyes on each other
Everything was great
But you should have warned me about your father
At first he took the crap
But I soon learned not to even bother
With your father
With your father
Now that you're away
I'm jerking off every day to your memory
You finding someone else was a real blow
Who will defend me?
I'm drinking every day
But try to behave the same way I did before
But it's hard
It's oh, so hard
We were only kids
When we first laid eyes on each other
Everything was great
But you should have warned me about your father
At first he took the crap
But I soon learned not to even bother
With your father
With your father
