Candles glowing gently in the dark

A clock is ticking softly in the night

And I swiftly walk
in my father's steps

On my tiptoes, quiet as a mouse



Father, dear father

Will you be proud of me?

I wish I could be

Just like you



The house is sleeping and we must be still

A forbidden world on the other side

And my heart's beating, my heart's beating wild

I can do it all with you by my side



Father, dear father

Will you be proud of me?

I wish I could be

Just like you
