The warm and cozy earth around me is all I need
Standing in the moonlight, feels so good to be free
I felt so sure you'd be always on my side
Safe in the knowledge that everything is fine
Sure that your care and love would always be mine
What do you want from me? Tell me how I can do better
Didn't want to trouble you, but I can't stand this pressure
What have I done? How should I have known?
Oh my father, tell me, why was I so wrong
Oh my father, how could I have been so wrong
Watch over me
I have everything I need
To feel the wind and feel the rain
let the children come and play again
Leaving me here
Forever safe and sound, to love and grow
So long as I can't reach the sun
All my arms are dancing with the wind
How did it come to be [you're?] so ashamed of me
Without warning, you['re?] cutting me down to size
I know there's no escape, you're the one I love
So show it's only me who is doing wrong
So I'm dancing with the birds
To the rhythm of what life could be
They call me good and beautiful
But nothing's left of me
Watch over me
I have everything I need
To feel the wind and feel the rain
let the children come and play again
Leaving me here
Forever safe and sound, to love and grow
So long as I will live
What have I done? How should I have known...
Oh my father, tell me why was I so wrong
Oh my father, how could I have been so wrong
(instrumental)
Watch over me
I have everything I need
Feel the wind and feel the rain
let the children come and play again
Leaving me here
Forever safe and sound
I always thought: if there's an end, the end is now
