[Female Verse 1] Father - how much in this word But for me, only emptiness I don't know your smile I never hear your voice And in childhood, I so wanted a dad Like my friends had in the yard But time went on, and I still Waited in vain in silence [Female Chorus] Where are you, dad, where were you When I needed you so much Why didn't you write And hold my hand But I grew up alone I learned everything I could Only the pain lives in my heart And gives no peace [Female Verse 2] In old photos, barely visible Your silhouette in a simple corner And it makes me so resentful That I grew up on a different path No greetings, no postcards No kind word along the way And childhood passed like torture In attempts to find my dad [Female Bridge] Now I am strong, I know That life will teach me anyway And even if the resentment fades My heart remembers anyway [Female Verse 3] I learned to be happy Even without a father's shoulder And I became strong and beautiful Though I was sick at night And if I ever meet Your gaze among a thousand others I will say "thank you" for the lessons That made me stronger than them [Female Chorus] Where are you, dad, where were you When I needed you so much Why didn't you write And hold my hand But I grew up alone I learned everything I could Only the pain lives in my heart And gives no peace [Female Outro] Father - how much in this word But I managed to overcome This pain and all the troubles To live on and not regret
