|
It was a night, yeah, the kind of night |
|
Left me pacing 'cross the floor. |
|
It was a dream, like those other dreams, |
|
So many times before. |
|
I went back to the old town, |
|
To the streets i used to roam, |
|
And i looked into my daddy's eyes |
|
And asked that fatal question, "why'd |
|
You have to go?" |
|
You had to go. |
|
There was a time when life was good |
|
And everything felt so right. |
|
I don't know why, i never understood |
|
Why you left us on that night. |
|
I went back, to that day when you left us on our own - |
|
Now i look into my baby's eyes |
|
And i just know there is no way |
|
I'd ever go. |
|
I'll never go. |
|
Take me to the mountainside, |
|
Far away from here, |
|
Where my eyes are open wide - |
|
No one gets too near. |
