Round and round, hold and tight, please
Round and round, you spin him with graceful ease
Last calls you head for the door
Last kiss, and Daddy ain’t here no more
Outside, the rain will fall
But no-ones gonna come and make up for it all
Dark days you won’t make a sound
The love’s gone, the love that used to abound
He sinks deep into himself
A lost child with nowhere to turn for help
Outside…
Tell him you won’t go away agaiin
Say you’ll be there when he needs a friend
Leaving a broken heart to mend
Just leave the light on,
Daddy, leave the light on, please
He stands tall, he lived throught it all
So hard, finding pride after the fall
Don’t explain, don’t even begin
If you’d cared, you should have been there for him
Outside…
