"Father's Love" Lyrics

Once a happy family, but that was long ago
A little boy lost in the battle, 'cause he's got nowhere else to go
Then there came that dreadful day, when he heard daddy slam the door
His mother came into his room, and said, "son we're not in love anymore"
And then he cried silently, "why did he have to leave, why did this happen to me?"

who will pick me up and hold me close and heal this heart of mine
Love me like a father should, remove my pain inside
I can't so this on my own, I need a father in my life

She was only sixteen, when she lost her purity
He told her that he loved her, that they were always meant to be
His selfish love began to fade, and then he broke her heart in two
He looked directly in her eyes, and asked,"Did you really think I loved you?"
Then as she fell on her knees, she began to weep, "Is something wrong with me?"

who will pick me up and hold me close and heal this heart of mine
Ovewhelm with their love, remove my pain inside
I'm in ned of rescuing; I need a hero in my life

I will pick you up an hold you close and heal your pain inside
Love you like a father should, you are a child of mine

I will pick you up an hold you close and heal your pain inside
Overwhelm you with my love my affection so devine
