Golden Umbrella

מילים

[Verse 1] Circus lights in the shadows glow Paper crowns from a long time ago You were building worlds out of wire and thread While the heavy kingdom slept in bed I used to watch you fix the clockwork gears Holding back a thousand weary years [Pre-Chorus] They call you the fallen, the monarch of pride But I saw the warmth that you hid deep inside Through every cracked glass and dusty old frame I still hear the song when you whisper my name [Chorus] Oh father of mine with your golden umbrella Spinning grand stories for your little girl Though the apple may fall and the throne room is dark You gave me the fire, you gave me the spark No matter how heavy your shattered wings grow I love you much more than this kingdom will know [Verse 2] Duckies floating in a glass parade A million little dreams that you once made I know the burden you carry alone The silent tears on a marble throne You thought you failed, but look at me stand Walking this road with your heart in my hand [Bridge] Let the hellfire fade, let the choir sing quiet We don't need the crown or the court in a riot Just a daughter and dad in the soft twilight room Finding sweet hope in the darkest of bloom [Chorus] Oh father of mine with your golden umbrella Spinning grand stories for your little girl Though the apple may fall and the throne room is dark You gave me the fire, you gave me the spark No matter how heavy your shattered wings grow I love you much more than this kingdom will know [Outro] You gave me the spark, dad... I love you much more than you know. [Fade Out]
