Tank Park Salute Lyrics

Kiss me goodnight and say my prayers
Leave the light on at the top of the stairs
Tell me the names of the stars up in the sky
A tree taps on the window pane
Thet feeling smothers me again
Daddy is it true that we all have to die
At the top of the stairs
Is darkness
I closed my eyes and when I looked
Your name was in the memorial book
And what had become of all the things we planned
I accepted the commiserations Of all your friends and your relations
But there'some thing I still don't understand
You were so tall
How could you fall?
Some photograpgs of a summer's day
A little boys lifetime away
Is all I've left of everything we've done
Like a pale moon in a sunny sky
Death gazes down as I pass by
To remind me that I'm but my fathers son
I offer up to you
This tribute
I offer up to you
This tank park salute
