Lyrics: Sophie Zelmani. Tell me you're joking.
He couldn't believe what his mama said
They put him in the car and he got scared
She looked at him in such a painful way
Oh please mama, don't torture me this way
She held him close and tears fell down
He thought of the words she'd said
Your father is gone
Oh no, this cannot be
My father would never leave you, me
So tell me you are joking, Mama
She said he didn't suffer
Because he was drunk
But how could she know
She wasn't there, when he sunk
Oh no, this cannot be
My father would never leave you, me
So tell me you are joking, Mama
He thought he would accept it
As time passed by
But still there are moments
When he has to cry
He feels his father
Should have been there
Through the years
But he'll always send him love
Through thoughts and through tears
They put him in the car and he got scared
She looked at him in such a painful way
Oh please mama, don't torture me this way
She held him close and tears fell down
He thought of the words she'd said
Your father is gone
Oh no, this cannot be
My father would never leave you, me
So tell me you are joking, Mama
She said he didn't suffer
Because he was drunk
But how could she know
She wasn't there, when he sunk
Oh no, this cannot be
My father would never leave you, me
So tell me you are joking, Mama
He thought he would accept it
As time passed by
But still there are moments
When he has to cry
He feels his father
Should have been there
Through the years
But he'll always send him love
Through thoughts and through tears
Zelmani, Sophie
