The morning's quiet and the stars grow dim I'm sitting here waiting for some sign of him The fire has died, and the dust has cleared It's Father's Day and I'm sitting here It's a dusty road that you left me on To run around in circles 'til your time has come I'm not gonna lie- I know it's fun To live as you please, but please hear me son That the burden of a father is to let you leave When the thought of your return is no guarantee So when you turn 'round the corner, my dear, dear son If I see you walk, I'll run If I could pray you home, you would be here by now But instead, you're in a pigsty living who knows how But the prayer still goes, and the train runs through It's the love of God catching up to you And the mercy of a father is to let you leave When the thought of your return is no guarantee So when you turn 'round the corner, my dear, dear son If I see you walk, I'll run The one thing I wanna give you is a taste of Him It's the song that you'll remember when the lights go dim When your friends have all abandoned you, and you can't win And your castles in the sky have all the walls cave in The burden of a father is to let you leave When the thought of your return is no guarantee So when you turn 'round the corner, my dear, dear son If I see you walk, I'll run
