Lyrics Father Of Mine

father of mine
tell me where have you been
you know i just close my eyes
my whole world disapeared

father of mine
take me back to the day
yea, when i was still your golden boy
back before you went away

i remember blue skies
walkin the block
i loved the way you held me high
i loved to hear you talk

you would take me to the movies
you would take me to the beach
take me to a place inside
that is so hard to reach

father of mine
tell me where did you go
yea, half the world inside ya man
that i did not seem to know

father of mine
tell me what do you see
when you look back to your wasted life
and you dont see me

i was ten years old
doin all that i could
was it easy for me to be a scared white boy
in a big black hood

some times you whould send me a b-day card
with a five dollar bill
yea i never learned to miss you man
like peers on hypocrites

daddy gave me a name
my daddy gave me a name, then he walked away
daddy gave me a name, then he walked away
my daddy gave me a name

yea
oh yea

daddy gave me a name
daddy gave me a name, and he walked away
daddy gave me a name, then he walked away
my daddy gave me a name

yea
yea
oh yea

father of mine
tell me where have you been
yea i just closed my eyes
and the world dissapeared

father of mine
tell me how do you sleep
with the children ou abandon
and a wife who soaked your feet

my world will never be the same
i will never be the same
i will always be weird inside
i will always be lame

now i am a grown man
with a child of my own
and i swear i will watch over him
not like the man that i know

then he walked away
daddy gave me a name
then he walked away
my daddy gave me a name
then he walked away
my daddy gave me a name
then he walked away
my daddy gave me a name
then he walked away
then he walked away
then he walked away
