Sweet Father
We used to walk in the morning
To see the birds of the air
You'd take my hand we'd walk down to the pond
To see what was living there
While the rest of the world was sleeping
We would sing to the sky
I couldn't feel my legs below me
And I thought that I would never die
Sweet morning why is your dew so cold
Oh sweet sun why do you burn my nose
Oh sweet father hold me up on your shoulders
Don't let me go
There weren't any fences
There weren't any walls
No cities to get lost in
Just trees standing tall
Looking over the cliff
In the safety of your arms
I knew if I were to jump
I wouldn't come to any harm
I know you know me better than I think that you do
You want to show me all the mistakes you've gotten through
Sweet morning why is your dew so cold
Oh sweet sun why do you burn my nose
Oh sweet father hold me up on your shoulders
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
To see the birds of the air
You'd take my hand we'd walk down to the pond
To see what was living there
While the rest of the world was sleeping
We would sing to the sky
I couldn't feel my legs below me
And I thought that I would never die
Sweet morning why is your dew so cold
Oh sweet sun why do you burn my nose
Oh sweet father hold me up on your shoulders
Don't let me go
There weren't any fences
There weren't any walls
No cities to get lost in
Just trees standing tall
Looking over the cliff
In the safety of your arms
I knew if I were to jump
I wouldn't come to any harm
I know you know me better than I think that you do
You want to show me all the mistakes you've gotten through
Sweet morning why is your dew so cold
Oh sweet sun why do you burn my nose
Oh sweet father hold me up on your shoulders
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
