about

A song about the brief encounter i had with my real father, and when i went to try and find him, and it wasn't him.

lyrics

I'm lost 'cos i never knew you.
Our paths crossed as people shuffled through.
For all i knew you could be anyone.
But you were gone, always on the run.

But what were you scared of?
Maybe you were scared off..
Like father like son; except i never had one.
That's why i'll always be around.
That's why i'll always be around.

Long enough, to finally see your face.
You can't have disappeared without a trace.
For all i knew your time had been and gone.
For all i knew your name was engraved in stone.

But what were you scared of?
Maybe you were scared off..
Like father like son; except i never had one.
That's why i'll always be around.
That's why i'll always be around.

My head full of things my heart forgot.
Now all hope is lost.
As i stare down the tracks again.
Wondering if you'll ever be back again.

Probably not.

But what were you scared of?
Maybe you were scared off..
Like father like son; except i never had one.
That's why i'll always be around.
That's why i'll always be around.
