Feel the sadness burning in my heart You left to early father love So many things I should have said But in you mind you knew it well Holding on to what I got and love But things still seems so dark and cold The fire burning down my happiness But I will rise So proud and strong you truly was, I took it with me as a tool A gift from father to his only son Watching over me with eagle eyes You gave me freedom to a life, Where dreams are born and truly became real See me falling, yeah down and lonely Are the angles on their way, I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you Promise me my son you always will, Cherish what you love believing in Never loose your values, stand up for the day Oh dear father I thank you for the years I'm writing this song on your desk Together we can make it through the day See me falling, yeah down and lonely Are the angles on their way, I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you See me falling, yeah down and lonely Are the angles on their way, I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you See me falling, yeah down and lonely Are the angles on their way, I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you
