Daddy's
Come Home
Steven
Van Zandt (Blue Midnight Music, 1981)
It's
been a long long time for us Song lyrics
are reproduced by kind permission of Steven Van Zandt.
I need to talk but I'm not sure enough
It's
about the changing of the palace guard
But I really don't know where to start
You see the children have all gone away
I don't think I like what's taken
their place
Something's happening I don't understand
I hope I don't show
how afraid I am
Daddy's come home
Back where he belongs
The country's gotten hard my love
People's faces have changed so much
Something's missing that was there before
Like they've forgotten what they're
livin' for
All I can do is keep doing my part
Tryin' my best to touch
somebody's heart
Before we let go of our little girl
I hope I get the
chance to change the world
Daddy's come home
Back where he belongs
I don't want to say goodnight
But somebody's stolen all the street lamps'
light
We've talked enough, drank too much
Now I need your touch, my love
Soon the day will break
Until then I'm gonna give you all the love you can
take
In the morning help me all you can
I'll need all your strength to
leave again
Daddy's come home
Back where he belongs
