Song To My Father Lyrics - Jane Siberry

Flashes of warmth 

Golden summers 

Sparkling winters 

Walking with daddy on Sundays 

Hand in hand, heart in heart 

Hand in hand, heart in heart 

Lift me up on the pony again 

Daddy, don't leave me alone in the dark 

Swing me on your leg again 

Daddy, why did they take the horse to the factory? 

Dry your tears and you can watch TV 

With your Mommy and me between mommy and me 

I know it's late, daddy but I can't get to sleep 

I'm sorry that I was so bad today 

I'm sorry that I made you so mad today 

Come tuck me in again, okay 

Bubbles and squeak, I hear you, daddy 

Daddy, I want to be your little girl again 

In the linden tree, in the apple tree 

My book, my blue dog and me 

Watching the leaves making shadows on the next page 

Well, daddy, I'm a big girl now and do you love me as much? 

I can tie my own shoelaces now but I still need you 

I know, a lot more answers now but I still need you 

I can stand on my own feet now but I still love you 

And daddy, I want to be your little girl again
