Lyrics
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.
Can't stand the light it hurts my eyes
And it comes as no surprise
To find
A broken heart has no reprieve
In all the things we leave
Behind
I can remember can recall
When once we had it all
Before
Can't stand up for falling down
When you're not around
No more
I won't forsake you
Don't wanna break you
Don't wanna make you
Make you cry
And time may heal
The pain we feel
But there's nothing real
In this goodbye
It's easy to be kind to strangers
Whilst we hurt the ones we love
And all i've ever wanted is to be a father to the child
