Suddenly

Suddenly March the 13th Papa said goodbye He left this world and the world he loved is in Dubai So Ma and I, packed our bags and led ourselves through a door His body flyin on the aeroplane that flies us home Can we kiss you? Before the fire burns you to the bones I remember You made me who I might become Oh Papa I know You were fighting to live your life your way Wherever you are I hope you're playing My mother knew that she had a choice to leave or make Start living life or become another wasted face She didn't know how to sign a cheque or even type Her god is real and it guides her through her life so blind Oh she made it And now she's a business kind of women And for all these years I couldn't tell her how proud I've become Oh Mama I know You were fighting I know you're not afraid Is everything I am now Worth the wait I'm losing you From my mind As I grow older too Your memories are the only peace The place I own These songs I sing are the only way to make you listen Oh we miss you In everything we did and had to do Can we hear you? Or maybe see a sign that says hello Oh Papa I know We were drowning But now we're on our way Through everything we lost Your ship has sailed
