Daddy's gone away in the equinox of summertime And all I see is a haze of things to come And mama she is dancing with a candle in her hand Cause she knows that I, I've got to come home These times aren't easily forgotten, oh, no... As I walk I wear the sun upon my face It's true I don't worry much about time or place I've got some memories in my pocket that I never look at Besides, you never called and I'm cool with that In my own peculiar way May be yesterday was just what I need to show me the way Where I could be like you and just close my eyes and run Little brother, he's asking, if he is old enough to die Because he's done his time As I walk I wear the sun upon my face It's true I don't worry much about time or place I've got some memories in my pocket that I never look at Besides, you never called and I'm cool with that In my own peculiar way Daddy's gone away But now he's living with the unforgiven I can feel it his battle's just begun He drinks black coffee ___ Spends his day out on the run I wish I could tell him how much I pray Each and every day he'd come back But in a way I walk I wear the sun upon my face It's true I don't worry much about time or place I've got some memories in my pocket that I never look at Besides, you never called and I'm cool with that In my own peculiar way
