Oh 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.
It's funny that way
You can get used
To the tears and the pain
What a child will believe
You never loved me
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You had the power
I never felt so good about myself
Seems like yesterday
I lay down next to your boots and I prayed
For your anger to end
Oh Father, I have sinned
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You had the power
I never felt so good about myself
Oh Father
You never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away?
Oh Father
You never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away?
Oh Father
You never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away?
Maybe someday
When I look back I'll be able to say
You didn't mean to be cruel
Somebody hurt you too
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You had the power
I never felt so good about myself
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
And you can't make me cry
You had the power
I never felt so
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You had the power
I never felt so good about myself
