Lyrics Yes – Dear Father
Text:
You need them to open the seed
To see what goes on in the world
Here in my mind
Catch the wind and hold on tight
And hear what goes on in the world
Here is all you see
Everything is made for you from me
If there’s anything you’d like to say that could help me in any way
Cause I’ve been waiting for so long for you to come along
Help me on that day
When you take over all the things heaven has made for you
Is there anything you think you should know
Is there anything before I go?
Dear Father repeat
I’m hungry, I’m cold
Feeling terribly old
I don’t think I can see
I’m not feeling good like I think I should
They’re on their own, needing a face, a place,
Hope and mind, a home
To see what goes on in the world
They’re who you need
To show them why they’re wrong, oh why indeed
We need to go on in the world
Here is all you see
Everything is made for you from me.
If there’s any complication that you’d like to talk over with me about
‘Cause I’ve been waiting for so long for you to come along
We can work it all out
repeat pre-chorus
Dear Father repeat
You must be putting me on
‘Cause most of their minds are gone
They run on T’understand me
I’m not feeling good like I think I should
Dear Father repeat
Can I give it a miss
‘Cause I’m not ready for this
I don’t think I can see
I’m not feeling good like I think I should
Dear Father repeat
Won’t you leave me alone
Won’t you let me go home
I don’t think I could see
Lord, they’d crucify me
I just couldn’t do that
‘Cause that’s not where it’s at now.
