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
