Father, I have failed you for 30 years, Forgive me, father, all my sins
Father, You left me alone when I was 10 And I have prayed every night since then
Father, I beg you to guide me now, for Life has moved swiftly into shadow
Father, A miracle is all I ask, not for me But for this world.
Father, If only Time could standstill for us, If only we were more than reflections in tinted glass
Father, Let there be an end to Man's misery Let there be a lesson learnt from our history
Father, All I see is war; Afghanistan, Egypt?, Mali All I see in fields of grey; Israel, Iran, amassing armies
Father, I wish you were here with me, Holding the hand of your little boy
Father, We could grow old together, you and I Lose ourselves in memory, but
Father, I know that cannot be, so Father Please, grant me this;
Father, When my tears for the loss of you stop, Have a quiet word with this, this God
Father, Tell him Man's grief is endless, his Ability to cause harm and death,
Father, Is limitless, but the world is still here, So
Father, Please ask God again to this dance And,
Father, Ask him not to forget us. Ask him to bless us with one last chance
