This time I think that my lover
Understands me
If we have faith in each other
Then we can be
Strong, babyI will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you …
Til the end of time.

And people on the streets

Just trying to find some peace
Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't just let me go...

That he can't come back, 'cause he has no children
To come back for
