Lyrics
0:14Oh, before they turn off all the lights
0:22I won't read you your wrongs or your rights
0:27The time has gone
0:31I'll tell you goodnight, close the door
0:36Tell you I love you once more
0:41The time has gone
0:44So here it is
0:46I'm not your son, you're not my father
0:52We're just two grown men saying goodbye
0:58No need to forgive, no need to forget
1:04I know your mistakes and you know mine
1:10And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
1:15So, Daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
1:20Don't be afraid, it's my turn
1:25To chase the monsters away
1:33Oh, well I'll read a story to you
1:41Only difference is this one is true
1:46The time has gone
1:49I folded your clothes on the chair
1:55I hope you sleep well, don't be scared
2:00The time has gone
2:02So here it is
2:05I'm not your son, you're not my father
2:10We're just two grown men saying goodbye
2:17No need to forgive, no need to forget
2:22I know your mistakes and you know mine
2:29And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
2:34So, Daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
2:39Don't be afraid, it's my turn
2:44To chase the monsters away
2:46Sleep a lifetime
2:50Yes, and breathe a last word
2:56You can feel my hand on your own
3:07I will be the last one
3:12So I'll leave a light on
3:18Let there be no darkness in your heart
3:28But I'm not your son, you're not my father
3:34We're just two grown men saying goodbye
3:41No need to forgive, no need to forget
3:46I know your mistakes and you know mine
3:53And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
3:58So, Daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
4:02Don't be afraid, it's my turn
4:07To chase the monsters away
Oh, before they turn off all the lights I won't read you your wrongs or your rights The time has gone I'll tell you goodnight, close the door Tell you I love you once more The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, Daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Oh, well I'll read a story to you Only difference is this one is true The time has gone I folded your clothes on the chair I hope you sleep well, don't be scared The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, Daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Sleep a lifetime Yes, and breathe a last word You can feel my hand on your own I will be the last one So I'll leave a light on Let there be no darkness in your heart But I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, Daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away
