Farewell

when I was a kid I didn't even think
something was missing
and "dad" was little more than a name
I didn't know a little boy needs his
fathers attention
to learn from his old man's mistakes
no I am not angry no more
this ain't the time to complain
the next time you leave through this door
I don't want you to carry the blame
time to say
farewell to you
farewell to you
I forgive you
forgive you
and say farewell to you
I've been growing up, you've been getting old
we became strangers
time builds unbreakable walls
now I'm kind of making up, trying to sort
things I remember
as I walk down the hospital hall
I came just to memorize your face
and to show you somehow I still care
your body turned into a cage
and you're just a captive in there
time to say
farewell to you
farewell to you
I forgive you
forgive you
and say farewell to you
now spread your wings
it's okay, it's okay
go spread your wings
someday we'll meet again
spread your wings
it's okay, it's okay
go spread your wings
we'll talk it out later
now spread your wings
every now and then, I can feel again
something is missing
though "dad" was little more than a name
now I'm blindfolded, following your steps
lacking the lessons
that keep me from making mistakes
no I am not angry now that you're gone
no this time I'm nothing but sad
sure I know you have been gone before
but this time I know
you won't come back
time to say
farewell to you
farewell to you
I forgive you
forgive you
and say farewell to you
now spread your wings
it's okay, it's okay
go spread your wings
someday we'll meet again
spread your wings
it's okay, it's okay
go spread your wings
we'll talk it out later
now spread your wings
