Dear Father - Colin Hay

Dear Father

I’ve got your photographs

Thank God for photographs

Hip hip hooray

Dear Father

I know you love to laugh though

In most of your photographs

It didn’t seem that way

Dear Father

I can’t let you go just yet

And I still can’t forget

You walkin around

Dear Father

You’re starring in my dreams

And you’re stealing all the scenes

Where did you go?

In my wandering mind

I stumble through time

I sing through the air

I’ll look for you there

Dear Father

I never got to say goodbye

I was singin on the River Clyde

And I didn’t 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

You’re in my reflection now

As I reach out and touch you now

Where did you go?

Dear Father I’m still curious why

You still make me furious

It was so long ago

Dear Father

I’ve got your photographs

Thank God for photographs

Hip hip hooray

Yippee I ay

Yippee I oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh
