Father my body is tired,
It aches with the pains I bare,
Its hard for me as I walk now,
I rarely can go any where.
I long for the days of summer,
The sun to warm my bones,
The cold is painful and hurts,
All that I do is to moan.
Father please come and get me,
I'm ready to come back to you,
These days I just feel so sleepy,
There's nothing for me here to do.
My son comes by every morning,
But I feel that I'm just in the way,
Give him the freedom that I had,
Let me come home once again.
I travelled the path that you gave me,
Lessons I learnt on the way,
But how can I learn any more here,
When its indoors that I always stay.
Love well my heart its felt plenty,
Hurt well I've had my share,
But father I am so tired,
Please take me if you do care.
Father I'm sorry I ask this of you,
But I think that my path is over its through,
I travelled so far in my life I feel,
I know all these lessons of love that you deal.
Father I am feeling cold,
This distance feels so numb,
I'm drifting into darkness
Tell me have you come.
Father hear me I plea,
I'm tired its time to sleep,
Take me to your arms,
Please for me do not weep.
What's this feeling that I feel,
Why are you in my room,
Who are you standing there,
Within that light so blue.
Oh father you have found me,
Is it time to go,
The pains they have all vanished,
Am I on my way home.
Father what a lesson,
Upon the path of time,
I'm glad that I have learnt this,
For now your love is mine.
