Lyrics
I walked with pride my mind so clear
A king at home no hint of fear
My watch was lost I blamed the thief
No cracks to show beneath my grief
Oh the father stands so high
Sand holds firm I won't comply
Time ticks on I play my part
Fooling all with steady heart
The rooms now shift the faces blend
Is Anne my child or foe to mend?
I shout my truth but none agree
A maze of doubt engulfs me free
Oh the father starts to sway
Sand gives out I lose my say
Time twists fast I play my part
Fooling none with fragile heart
The light grows dim my strength departs
A child's fear grips my weary heart
Names slip away the cold sets in
My leaves fall soft my world grows thin
Oh the father fades to night
Sand runs low no strength to fight
Time drags slow I drop my part
Fooling none with broken heart
I'm small again the years erase
I call for her a lost embrace
The nurse is kind my roots are gone
A whispered end the fight withdrawn
Oh the father's laid to sleep
Sand is still no more to keep
Time stands still I've played my part
No fooling now a quiet heart
Oh the father's laid to sleep
