Joan Armatrading
Father Figure
[Verse 1]
Give me love that's unconditional
And I'll cherish your name
Give me all that you could bear to part with
And I'll give you the same
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been running in the darkness so long
Tryna rewind the past
Who'd have known it was so hard to move on?
From a love that I never had?
[Chorus]
I just need your tender embrace
Be my father figure
Help me to remember your face
Be my father figure
My father figure
[Verse 2]
Give me shelter and relieve my pain
I've been hurting too long
Teach me how I'm meant to love again
Show me how to be strong
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been running in the darkness so long
Tryna rewind the past
Who'd have known it was so hard to move on?
From a love that I never had?
[Chorus]
I just need your tender embrace
Be my father figure
Help me to remember your face
Be my father figure
My father figure
I just need your tender embrace
Be my father figure
Help me to remember your face
Be my father figure
My father figure
[Outro]
Give me love, give me love
Give me love, give me love
Give me love, give me love
Give me love, give me love
