Papa, Can You Hear Me?
GodOh GodMay the light of this flickering candleIlluminate the night the wayyour spirit illuminates my soul
Papa, can you hear me?Papa, can you see me?Papa can you find me in the night?Papa are you near me?Papa, can you hear me?Papa, can you help me not be frightened?Looking at the skies I seem to see a million eyesWhich ones are yours?
Where are you now that yesterdayHas waved goodbyeAnd closed its doors?The night is so much darkerThe wind is so much colderThe world I see is so much biggerNow that I'm alone
Papa, please forgive meTry to understand mePapa, don't you know I had no choice?Can you hear me prayingAnything I'm sayingEven though the night is filled with voices?I remember everything you taught meEvery book I've ever read
Can all the words in all the booksHelp me to face what lies ahead?The trees are so much tallerAnd I feel so much smallerThe moon is twice as lonelyAnd the stars are half as bright
Papa, how I love youPapa, how I need youPapa, how I miss youKissing me good night
