There I stood in the night Out on the broken pier Me with my feet in the sea You with your face in the clouds, The man in the moon And as I heard your voice, Felt your laugh Flood across the broken pier I wanted to die right then and there
You smiled down across the waves As if to say to me "everything will be okay, Be strong and true" And I felt your eyes Like the tide Pulling me out into the air For a moment in time You held me there, Father and son, Home again'
