Dear father Iâve got your photographs
Thank God for photographs hip hip hooray
Dear father I know you loved to laugh though
In most of your photographs it didnât seem that way
Dear father I canât let you go just yet
And I still canât forget you walking around
Dear father youâre starring in my dreams
And youâre stealing all the scenes where did you go?
In my wandering mind
I stumble through time
I sing through the air
I look for you there
Dear father I never got to say goodbye
I was singing on the River Clyde and I didnât know
Dear father I see you dancing still
And I think I always will till the day I die
Dear father I feel your healing hands
As I fall asleep I can, plain as the day
Dear father youâre in my reflection now
As I reach out and touch you now where did you go?
Dear father I am still curious why
You still make me furious it was so long ago
Dear father Iâve got your photographs
Thank God for photographs hip hip hooray
