lyrics

I’ve told you once, I won’t tell you again
Forget my love, Forget my sins
Forget where I’ve been

For all you’ve said Your stories untold
Questions born that cannot grow old
Buried in the past
Now it’s too late to ask

Wars fought but never won
Promises unkept

I told you once I'll tell you again
Keep your love Keep your head
Remember everything
(it’s all that will be left)

All I know is that you went to sea
Lived a life before me
The paths that you paved
The choices you made

You were never a man only a father
