Send "Father Of Mine" Ringtone to your Cell

Father of mine, tell me where have you been?
You know I just closed my eyes, my whole world disappeared
Father of mine, take me back to the day
Yeah when I was still your golden boy back before you went away

I remember blue skies walking the block
I loved it when you held me high, I loved to hear you talk
You would take me to the movie, you would take me to the beach
Take me to a place inside that's so hard to reach

Oh
Father of mine, tell me where did you go?
Yeah you had the world inside your hand but you did not seem to know
Father of mine, tell me what do you see?
When you look back at your wasted life and you don't see me

I was ten years old doing all that I could
It wasn't easy for me to be a scared white boy in a black neighborhood
Sometimes you would send me a birthday card with a five dollar bill
I never understood you then and I guess I never will

Daddy gave me a name, my Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My Daddy, he gave me a name
Yeah, oh yeah, yeah

Daddy gave me a name, Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My Daddy gave me a name
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah

Father of mine, tell me where have you been?
Yeah I just closed my eyes and the world disappeared
Father of mine, tell me how do you sleep?
With the children you abandoned and the wife I saw you beat

I will never be safe, I will never be sane
I will always be weird inside, I will always be lame
Now I'm a grown man with a child of my own
And I swear I'll never let her know all the pain I have known

Then he walked away
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away, oh
My Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My Daddy gave me a name

Then he walked away
Yeah
Then he walked away
Yeah
Then he walked away
Oh yeah
