Nina simone, gilbert o'sullivanI remember this afternoonWhen my sister came into the roomShe refused to say how my father wasBut I knew he'd be dying soon.And I was oh so glad, and it was oh so sadThat I realized that I despised this man I once called father.In his hanging on, with fingers clutchingHis body now just eighty-eight poundsBlinded eyes still searchingFor some distant dream that had faded away at the seams.Dying alone, naturally.I was his favourite child, I had him a little whileJust as long as I could play the piano and smile a little smileJust when I needed him most, he was already a ghostAnd for all my life there where promises and they always have been brokenLeaving me alone with all my troublesNot ever once touching me and sayingDaugther, I'll help you get over.Now he's fadig away and I'm glad to say,He's dying at last. naturally.It's a very sad thing to see that my mother with all her heartBelieves the words that the Bible said til death do us two part.For her that was forever and ay, he decided her night and dayHow could some english words so small affect someone so strangely? Taking her away from us, her soul includedShe might es well be gone with him, all the children are excluded.Loneliness is hell, I know so well,For I'm alone. naturally.I waited three weeks for him to dieI waited three weeks for him to dieEvery night he was calling on meI wouldn't go to him.I waited three weeks for him to dieThree weeks for him to die.And after he died, after he diedEvery night I went out, every night I had a flight.It didn't matter who it was with'cos I knew what it was about.And if you could read between lines, my dad and I close as flies.I loved him then and I loved him still, that's why my heart's so broken.Leaving me to doubt God in his mercyAnd if he really does exist then why does he desert me? When he passed away I smoked and drank all day,Alone. again. naturally.
