Father歌词完整版
I saw you go out wandering,
Your head bowed silently,
Your tennis socks pulled up mid-calf,
Your shorts above the knee.
I didn’t ask to join you,
I wasn’t so inclined,
But if I’d run it by you
I know you wouldn’t mind.
You vanished into orchards,
Alone but with your thoughts,
And home you came by sunset,
A basket full of plums you brought.
Your face alight with pleasure,
The first fruit of the season,
Your joy was quite contagious,
We didn’t need a reason.
Oh, father, where do you go?
A wife and three kids grown.
Oh, father, what do you know?
Somehow you found the secret
To make an orchard grow.
The night sky darkens surely,
You sit and light a fire,
Within four walls your darlings gather,
Contentment they inspire
And once your brood is sleeping,
You head towards the loot
But the basket sits there empty,
Your children’s stomachs lined with fruit.
Oh, father, where do you go?
A wife and three kids grown.
Oh, father, what do you know? Somehow you found the secret
To make an orchard grow.
