Were the two he left you with
That you never knew you were young
With the sun and moon as gifts
Oh Lord where did the feeling go
As he carried you away
Reaching out to make you pay
Oh Lord I never felt so low
But the only son you ever saw
That always seemed like a fist
Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head
Oh Lord where did the feeling go
From your father's hand
He came like a hero from the factory floor
Because you played chance with a lifetime's romance
And the price was far too long
Oh Lord I never felt so low
