(Verse 1)
Life is all too short it seems
Passes by us like a dream
All too soon it slips away
I'm glad I took the time to say

(Chorus)
Father I love you
Father I need you
I long to see you
Once again

Father, I love you
Father, I need you
I long to see you
Once again

(Verse 2)
On this earth we live and grow
But this is not the end we know
Beyond this life there is a home
Beyond the heartache we have known

(Repeat Chorus)
Father I love you
Father I need you
I long to see you
Once again

Father I love you
Father I need you
I long to see you
Once again

(Bridge)
Wonderful, Comforting
Are my memories of you
Colorful, glorious
Are the dreams you gave me

(Repeat Chorus)
Father I love you
Father I need you
I long to see you
Once again

Father I love you
Father I need you
I long to see you
Once again
