Oh…oh…oh…oh…oh…
Oh…god… oh…oh…oh…oh…

May the light illuminate the night
The way your spirit illuminates my soul
Oh…oh…oh…oh…oh…oh… oh…oh...

Papa, can you hear me?
Papa, can you see me?
Papa, can you find me in the night?
Papa, are you near me? Papa, can you hear me?
Papa, can you help me not be frightened?

Looking at the skies I seem to see
A million eyes. Which ones are yours?
Where are you now that yesterday
Has waved goodbye and closed its doors?

The night is so much darker, the wind is so much colder
The world I see is so much bigger now that I'm alone…

Papa, please forgive me, try to understand me
Papa, don't you know I have no choice…?
Can you hear me praying? Anything I'm saying
Even though the night is filled with voices?

I remember everything you taught me - every book I've ever read….
Can all the words in all the books help me to face what lies ahead… ?
The trees are so much taller and I feel so much smaller…
The moon is twice as lonely and the stars are half as bright...

Papa, how I love you… Papa, how I need you…
Papa, how I miss you… kissing me… good night…..
