Your life wasn't long just like a bird's life
But you had your only sky
And like an eagle you one day flew too high
Beyond the limits set by the unknown
And up where they belong and where the sun is black
That's when we understood you never never ever were [bad word] back

Just like the water flowing down a stream
You were as endless as a dream
Unlike some old forgotten poetry
Your tale will always be chanted inside of me

Father I miss you so
Father why d'you have to go
So far where I can't go
Somewhere, some place, but where, I don't know

Your life was a song of love and strife
Too many times you rolled the dice
And all the people as a court they prayed and they cried
When you climbed beyond the summit of the unknown
And up where the wind is strong and there's no turning back
We got lost and found in the woods where the seeds of love grow back

By the millions you were held in high esteem
Bringing happiness to every dream
To every dream

Father, I miss you so
Father, why d'you have to go
So far away where I can't go
Somewhere, some place, but where, I don't know
