Dads – No We're Not Actually lyrics
Visits used to be on holidays and weekends
Now you’re always a phone call away from wherever you’re needed
For emergency speakings
A body on a stretcher, eyes rolled back and barely sleeping
Tears in your voice, I’m trying to keep you from weeping
Because everything will be fine, as long as I say so
And everything will go right, as long as I say so
There’s the prettiest view of the city from his bedside window
If you ignore what they’re for, these machines make the most beautiful glow
Turn the lights out and go
Pillows under his head, make sure there is a steady blood flow
Hold his hand tight, whisper goodbye slow
Because everything will be fine, as long as we say so
And everything will go right, as long as we say so
So we’ll tell him to stay young
Don’t die on me yet
Because I can’t bear to see him like this again
I keep thinking back to all of us in that kitchen on those mornings
Steady nights of sleeping
Steady nights of sleeping
Steady nights of sleeping
Oh how I miss those
Oh how I miss you
Now you’re always a phone call away from wherever you’re needed
For emergency speakings
A body on a stretcher, eyes rolled back and barely sleeping
Tears in your voice, I’m trying to keep you from weeping
Because everything will be fine, as long as I say so
And everything will go right, as long as I say so
There’s the prettiest view of the city from his bedside window
If you ignore what they’re for, these machines make the most beautiful glow
Turn the lights out and go
Pillows under his head, make sure there is a steady blood flow
Hold his hand tight, whisper goodbye slow
Because everything will be fine, as long as we say so
And everything will go right, as long as we say so
So we’ll tell him to stay young
Don’t die on me yet
Because I can’t bear to see him like this again
I keep thinking back to all of us in that kitchen on those mornings
Steady nights of sleeping
Steady nights of sleeping
Steady nights of sleeping
Oh how I miss those
Oh how I miss you
