Song For My Father
SARAH MCLACHLAN · Shine On 2014 · Track 06 of 13
Written by Matt Morris, Sarah McLachlan, Tom Douglas
How I wish that I could tell you It's to you that I would run You were the place that I could always rest my head When my world had come undone
'Cause I've been wrestling with my demons They're telling me I have no choice How I wish that I could lean upon you now Amidst the chaos and the noise
Your light buried the dark A constant unwavering heart
You were the well to cool my fury Deep and calm your waters feel Your quiet words a salve to soothe my wayward soul It was there I learned to heal
Your light buried the dark A constant unwavering heart
Oh I hope that you can hear me Through the ravages of time You have carried me though more than you could know I still feel your hand in mine
Your light buried the dark A constant unwavering heart
