Father I Confess

[Verse]
So frail and so weak
A shell of yourself
I cling to you with all my might
Cause your essence still dwells

I remember you used to be so strong
I would get so scared
When you took a harsh tone
But I still knew you cared

[Chorus]
Oh father I do confess
You’ve loved me more than the rest
You tried to do what’s right
Even if it wasn’t always for the best

You made your mistakes
(And so have I)
But it’s not too late
I know what I must do
I must tell you that I love you 

[Verse]
I’m still doing fine 
though there’s so much going on
You can’t really hear me speak
So I’ll sing you this song

Why must we get old?
It’s such a cruel fate
wish I could turn back the clock
The hour is getting late

What little time we have left
I want you to know
That I always loved you
Though it didn’t show

[Chorus]
Oh father I do confess
You’ve loved me more than the rest
You tried to do what’s right
Even if it wasn’t for the best

You made your mistakes
(And so have I)
But it’s not too late
I know what I must do
I must tell you that I love you 

[Verse]
So close your eyes
And fall fast asleep
Your days of toil are over
Only good memories must you keep

So close your eyes
And fall fast asleep
Your days of toil are over
Only good memories must you keep

Dream of times when I was young 
And in your arms I slept
We sure had our day in the sun
But into the night we have crept

[Chorus]
Oh father I do confess
You’ve loved me more than the rest
You tried to do what’s right
Even if it wasn’t for the best

You made your mistakes
(And so have I)
But it’s not too late
I know what I must do
I must tell you that I love you 

[Verse]
So frail and so weak
A shell of yourself
I cling to you with all my might
Cause your essence still dwells
