Papa, how I love you
Papa, are you near me?
Papa, please forgive me
Anything I'm saying
Can all the words in all the books
Looking at the skies, I seem to see a million eyes
Papa, don't you know I had no choice
Papa, can you find me in the night?
Where are you now that yesterday has waved goodbye
Even though the night is filled with voices
The world I see is so much bigger now that I'm alone
I remember ev'rything you taught me
Can you hear me praying
And closed its doors?
Papa, can you hear me?
Try to understand me
Papa, how I miss you
Papa, how I need you
The moon is twice as lonely and the stars are half as bright
Ev'ry book I've ever read
The trees are so much taller and I feel so much smaller
Papa, can you help me not be frightened?
Help me to face what lies ahead?
Which ones are yours?
The night is so much darker, the wind is so much colder
