Original Doug Heyes lyrics · AI-generated music & vocals
A father speaks to his son after the mother's departure, trying to offer reassurance while admitting his own confusion. Their bond moves through mountains, water and cosmic imagery as the world around them feels fragile. The promise to give everything and meet again makes family love the steady center of the journey.

Lyrics
Words by Douglas Heyes Jr
I'm your father You're my son You are my first and only one When your Mother went away I did not know what to say In the Seagrass by the Bay Where the days just fly away In the last rays of the Sun You and I were born to run In the mountains over there Golden Fountains in the air And the raindrops fall like pearls On this lost and lonely world We are gone without a Trace A love song to outer space At the final end of Days For the entire human race If you're as here as I am Then reach out and take my hand And help me to understand All these things just as they are When you wish upon a Star Still The song remains the same It's a Melody unchained A Rhapsody ordained In a Coat of Many Colors Floating high above the ground Sailing by the others Without making a sound Silence the expression Of a world that's falling down And all your dreams and fantasies Lie broken on the ground A little daytime revelry Or a thorn upon the Rose Wrapped up in the finery Of The Emperor's New Clothes Stacked up in the gallery Like splendor under glass And the stillness of the water Like an echo of the past I'm your father, you're my son You are my first and only one I would give you everything Because you were born a King When it's time to take wing I know that I'll see you again With a gentle breath of wind We're gonna make it to the End *********
