I love my father and I love him well
I hope to see him someday soon
I love my father and I love him well
I hope to see him someday soon

'Cause where I live it gets dark at night
The kind of dark heats up the night
Where I live it gets dark at night
The kind of dark heats up the night

And you know that, mother, I'd be lying
If I didn't tell you I'm afraid of dying

And as I dream I'm falling down
The world moves without a sound
Lost as sure as I was found
Sun comes up without a sound

So I up and face another day
And I hope that kindness comes your way
Well I up and face another day
And I hope that kindness comes your way

This for you I pray
Pray for you today

And in the morning I'll be gone
Where for to cannot be told
'Cause in the morning I'll be gone
Where for to cannot be told

A mind filled with memories
Weigh me down, my god

I love my father and I love him well
I hope to see him someday soon
I love my father and I love him well
I hope to see him someday soon
I hope to meet him someday soon
