Light Lyrics

Son, your father's not all good
Still, I love you more than I thought I could

And when the menace in my mind
Finds me, I simply look to your eyes

And boy, someday I hope I do
See the man you will grow into
And when you heart's in disarray
Know that your father too has made mistakes

Son, your father's lost his head
Still, I mean every word that I've said

Though the truth can truly cut
Here in this confessional with my blood

Boy, someday I hope I do
See the man you will grow into
And when you heart's in disarray
Know that your father too has made mistakes

I've been cruel to the ones who have stayed by my side
And foolish enough to believe in my pride
But vanity never could keep me from caring for you

I've strayed too far away from the trees and the lake
The innocent road that I chose not to take
But still I can bring you to bathe in the river
To wash out the world long before your heart's withered away

Boy, someday I hope I do
See the man you will grow into
And when you heart's in disarray
Know that your father too has made, he's made mistakes
