You told me you'll travel across the seas
To go on your own adventure
You told me that you will keep in touch with me
"Father, oh Father"
You said, "I'll make sure I'll write"
I believed in my heart as I
Gazed upon the books stacked inside
(Father, oh Father)
(Father, oh Father)
You told me you found a new place to stay
And you found a brotherhood of man
You told me 'bout a nation you're currently fighting for
"Father, oh Father"
You said to me, "we won the war"
I trusted my instincts
As I framed the declaration you signed
My pride, my joy, my everything
I raised you to do what is right
I usะตd to keep you in my arms
I never left you out of my sight
If I had a wish
If I had a prayะตr
Stay safe with me throughout the night
(Sleep, my son)
(Sleep, my son)
You told me the last time
You'll keep the lead
You sent me your plans and desires
You told me that the last time
And that was the last time you wrote
"Father, oh Father"
I heard your cries from afar
I started getting worried
As I sent my friends up in the sky
My son, my beloved son
I knew that you weren't alright
I tried to get you back to my arms
Before your final goodbye
You had a wish
You had it planned
To die by my sword, as I cried
(Sleep, my son)
(Sleep, my son)
Rest eternal grant to him, O Lord (sleep, my son)
Let light perpetual shine (sleep, my son)
May he rest in peace (rest in peace)
May he rest in peace (rest in peace)
May he rest in peace (rest in peace)
Finally, lived in peace
Sleep, my son
Sleep, my son
