Father Of Mine

In the style of

Everclear

Lyrics

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

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

i remember
blue skies
walking the block
i loved it when 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

oh
father of mine
tell me
where did you go

yeah you had
the world
inside your hand
but you did not
seem to know

father of mine
tell me
what do you see
when you look back
at your wasted life
and you don't see me

i was ten years old
doin' all that i could
wasn't easy for me
to be a scared
white boy in a
black neighborhood

sometimes
you would send me
a birthday card
with a five dollar bill
yeah i never
understood you then
and i guess
i never will

daddy gave me a name
my dad
he gave me a name
daddy gave me a name
my dad
he gave me a name

yeah yeah
oh yeah
oh hey
daddy gave me a name
daddy gave me a name
daddy gave me a name

my dad
he gave me a name
yeah
yeah
oh yeah

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

father of mine
tell me
how do you sleep
with the children
you abandoned
and the wife
i saw you beat

i will never be safe
i will never be sane
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'm not gonna
let her know
all the pain
i have known

daddy gave me a name
my dad
he gave me a name
my dad
he gave me a name

yeah
my dad
he gave me a name
yeah
yeah
oh yeah
