April 24th 1981 / My Father's Chair
I know all your life you wondered About that great step we all take alone How far does the spirit travel on the journey? You must surely be near Heaven And it thrills me to the bone To know daddy knows the great unknown My Father's Chair still standing there All alone since the long night Now it's three years on and I still feel He'll come home, we'll be alright So where's this healing time brings I was told the pain would ease But it still hurts like the first night That night my brother, my mother and I Were looking up at a distant star And wishing we could reach that far And back in the house And alone for the first time We told each other we cared And I avoided My Father's Chair I watch my family, we hold on We are strong and we'll be alright The clock continues counting down, all the while And every child will share the long night But do the spirits meet again Why am I still so filled with doubt Letras de cancionesIs my soul everlasting And the far distant future When I knew you'd be gone Came too fast and stays too long Why do they leave the weak of spirit And take the strong When the world turns sour And I get sick from the smell And I can't find no comfort there I climb into My Father's Chair From Letras Mania
