If I could recall all the heartaches
Dear old daddy I've caused you to bear
If I could erase those lines from your face
And bring back the gold to your hair
If God would but grant me the power
Just to turn back the pages of time
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone
To that silver haired daddy of mine
I know it's too late dear old daddy
To repay for those sorrows and cares
Though dear mother is waiting in heaven
Just to comfort, and solace you there
If I could recall all the heartaches
Dear old daddy I've caused you to bear
If I could erase those lines from your face
And bring back the gold to your hair
If God would but grant me the power
Just to turn back the pages of time
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone
To that silver haired daddy of mine
THERE'S NO CHANCE TO LIVE AGAIN,
THE LIFE THAT IS PAST.
FOR WHAT IS DONE IS DONE,
THE DIE HAS BEEN CAST.
ALL THE WORLD IS SADNESS,
BUT EACH ONE HAS THEIR PART.
YOU TOO, WILL LEARN TO LIVE WITH,
THE TEARS THERE IN YOUR HEART.
WITH THE PAIN THAT SURROUNDS YOU,
AND THE ANGUISH YOU FEEL.
NO ONE BUT DADDY REALLY KNOWS,
THE TEARS THERE ARE REAL.
BUT, GO ON YOU MUST,
AND, GO ON YOU WILL.
EVEN THOUGH YOU'VE LOST LOVE,
AND THE TEARS REMAIN THERE STILL.
FOR TIME IS A HEALER,
WHEN YOU FINE THE END IN SIGHT.
THERE'S ALWAYS FAITH AND HOPE,
TO SEE YOU THROUGH THE NIGHT.
TO SPEED YOU ON YOUR FLIGHT.
