God, why can't You want what I want... |
My child don’t You know I understand You wish to fly You try But I hold you And you fall Exhausted from trying Crying Hopes thwarted Frustrated You try To push me away You stand and sway Trying To gain your footing Breathing Hard you try To fly I feel Your heart beating still With the will And I understand But I know your destiny Lies Not in the sky But in the sea Your strength Quotient Is in the Length and breadth Of the ocean There Is where I want to Lead you Aren’t you long ing to sing Your own song You try to explain Your pain You scream This is my Dream Don’t you Think I know that Too? In my strong arms I hold you Against me Trying to calm You as you beat Your fist Against my chest Father I long to follow my own Quest You’re like a child That strives For errant desires And I A Father whose interest Is for your best And I know You think you long to Go But do you know What I know Do you see By my hand Your glory Is written In the sand Your destiny Is in the sea So I hold you strong My heart bleeding With yours And I cry With your frustrated cries You think it’s hard For you Son It’s bitter hard For me too But I do it For you And when Your sobs quiet Then When you feel most Alone Shattered body Shattered soul Know And realize That Is when I Am grasping you Most tightly |
