Love has a Sound

All I really wanted,
was for you to hold my hand.
Walk along the sidewalk,
build castles out of sand.

To see mama waiting,
when we come home so late.
Asking what we did today,
this our special date.

To have you hold me papa,
when life wasn't fair.
To wipe away the tears,
to show me that you care.

I waited for you papa,
gave you all I could.
Stood by your side,
longer than I should.

Can't you hear me papa,
crying out to you?
Can't you feel inside,
see what I must do?

My hand is shaking papa,
my heart is breaking fast.
How can I let you go,
when love is still so vast?

Oh papa can't you listen,
can't you see what you have done?
How can you hurt us,
by trying to make us one?

Mama will be waiting,
we'll see her in a while.
Don't hate me dearest papa,
let her see you smile.

Remember the lovely carols,
that years ago we sang.
Remember that love has a sound,
......bang.
