Lyrics: Yes. Dear Father.

Here are the books of Luke
You need them to open the seed
To see what goes on in the world

Here in my mind
Catch the wind and hold on tight
To what we'll find
And hear what goes on in the world

Here is all you see
Everything is made for you
From me

If there's anything you'd like to say
That could help me in any way
'Cause I've been waiting for so long for you to come along
Help me on that day

When you take over all the things
Heaven has made for you
Is there anything you think you should know
Is there anything before I go?

(Dear Father)
I'm hungry, I'm cold
(Dear Father)
Feeling terribly old
(Dear Father)
I don't think I can see
I'm not feeling good like I think I should

They're on their own, needing a face, a place
Hope and mind, a home
To see what goes on in the world

They're who you need
To show them why they're wrong, oh why indeed
We need to go on in the world

Here is all you see
Everything is made for you
From me

If there's any complication that
You'd like to talk over with me about
'Cause I've been waiting for so long for you to come along
We could work it all out

When you take over all the things
Heaven has made for you
Is there anything you think you should know
Is there anything before I go?

(Dear Father)
You must be putting me on
(Dear Father)
'Cause most of their minds are gone
(Dear Father)
They will not understand me
I'm not feeling good like I think I should

(Dear Father)
Can I give it a miss
(Dear Father)
'Cause I'm not ready for this
(Dear Father)
I don't think I can see
I'm not feeling good like I think I should

(Dear Father)
Won't you leave me alone
(Dear Father)
Won't you let me go home
(Dear Father)
I don't think I could see

(Dear Father)
Lord, they'd crucify me
(Dear Father)
I just couldn't do that
(Dear Father)
'Cause that's not where it's at now
