[Verse 1: Gary Cherone]
Oh daddy, please
Take me with you where you goin'
Oh daddy, please
Come find the time, come watch us growin'
Oh daddy, please
Don't leave there's so much that we want to know before you go

[Pre-Chorus: Cherone with Bettencourt and Badger]
Well I'm in need of someone to tie my shoes
Or take hold of my hand when I become afraid
And whose footsteps will I follow into?
Daddy please
Don't run away

[Chorus: Cherone, Bettencourt and Badger]
Our father
Far father
Our father
Far farther away

[Verse 2: Cherone with Bettencourt and Badger]
Oh daddy, please
I pray every night the doors will open
Oh daddy, please
This house is just a broken home
Left all alone
[Pre-Chorus: Cherone with Bettencourt and Badger]
Well I'm in need of someone to tie my shoes
Or take hold of my hand when I become afraid
And whose footsteps will I follow into
Daddy please
Don't run away

[Chorus: Cherone, Bettencourt and Badger]
Our father
Far father
Let me tell you 'bout
Our father
Far farther away

Oh daddy, no
Oh daddy, don't run away

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus: Cherone with Bettencourt and Badger]
And whose footsteps will I follow into
Daddy please
Can't you hear me daddy
Don't run away

[Chorus: Cherone, Bettencourt and Badger]
Our father
Far father
Let's talk about
Our father
Yeah, yeah
Far farther
Yea, I know what I'm talkin' 'bout
Our father
Far farther away
Our father
