my father (1995) - judy collins lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
my father always promised us
that we would live in france
we’d go boating on the seine
and i would learn to dance
we lived in ohio then
he worked in the mines
on his dreams like boats
we knew we would sail in time

[verse 2]
all my sisters soon were gone
to denver and cheyenne
marrying their grownup dreams
the lilacs and the man
i stayed behind the youngest still
only danced alonе
the colors of my father’s dreams
wеre fading, fading without a sound

[verse 3]
and i live in paris now
my children dance and dream
hearing the ways of a miner’s life
in words they’ve never seen
i sail my memories of home
like boats across the seine
and watch the paris sun
as it sets in my father’s eyes again
[piano solo]

[verse 4]
my father always promised us
that we would live in france
we’d go boating on the seine
and i would learn to dance
i sail my memories of home
like boats across the seine
and watch the paris sun
as it sets in my father’s eyes again
