| Oh, before they turn off all the lights
|
| I won’t read you your wrongs or your rights
|
| The time has gone
|
| I’ll tell you goodnight, close the door
|
| Tell you «I love you» once more
|
| The time has gone, so here it is
|
| I’m not your son, you’re not my father
|
| We’re just two grown men saying goodbye
|
| No need to forgive, no need to forget
|
| I know your mistakes and you know mine
|
| And while you’re sleeping, I’ll try to make you proud
|
| So, daddy, won’t you just close your eyes?
|
| Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
|
| To chase the monsters away
|
| Oh, well I’ll read a story to you
|
| Only difference is this one is true
|
| The time has gone
|
| I folded your clothes on the chair
|
| I hope you sleep well, don’t be scared
|
| The time has gone, so here it is
|
| I’m not your son, you’re not my father
|
| We’re just two grown men saying goodbye
|
| No need to forgive, no need to forget
|
| I know your mistakes and you know mine
|
| And while you’re sleeping, I’ll try to make you proud
|
| So, daddy, won’t you just close your eyes?
|
| Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
|
| To chase the monsters away
|
| Sleep a lifetime
|
| Yes and breathe a last word
|
| You can feel my hand on your own
|
| I will be the last one so I’ll leave a light on
|
| Let there be no darkness in your heart
|
| But I’m not your son, you’re not my father
|
| We’re just two grown men saying goodbye
|
| No need to forgive, no need to forget
|
| I know your mistakes and you know mine
|
| And while you’re sleeping, I’ll try to make you proud
|
| So, daddy, won’t you just close your eyes?
|
| Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
|
| To chase the monsters away |
