Dear Father Songtext

von Colin Hay

Dear Father I've got your photographs,
Thank god for photographs, hip hip horray
Dear Father I know you love to laugh though
Most of your photographs didn't seem that way
Dear Father Can't let you go to sleep, An I still can't forget you walkin around.
Dear Father you're starring in my dreams you're stealing all the scenes, where did you go?
My wandering mind, I stumble through time, I sing through the air,

I'll look for you there,
Dear Father I never got to say goodbye, I was singin on the river kway, and I didn't know,
Dear Father I see you dancing still and i think i always will till the day I die
Dear Father I feel your healing hands, as I fall asleep i can, plain as the day.
Dear Father you're in my refection now as I reach out and touch you now — where did you go?
Dear Father I'm still curious when you still make me furious it was so long ago.
Dear Father I've got your photographs,
Thank god for photographs, hip hip horray
