He was sitting in the corner At a table all alone A candle burnin' in the darkness His glass of wine was almost gone And something about him felt familiar And it made me stop and stare The way he held his hands before him Looked like he was lost in prayer Hey son, what are you lookin' at? Why do your eyes look so sad? There's somethin' in the way he sat there It made me think about my dad I'm lookin' for the answer Just like everyone I know that there's no ending To the love between a father and the son Hey son, why don't you pull up one of those empty chairs? Bring it over here by my side Buy me a glass of wine This looks like a real good place to hide You know I've always been a fisherman Fishin' for souls along the way You kind of remind me of my only son And I lost him 33 years ago today I'm lookin' for the answer Just like everyone I know that there's no ending To the love between a father and the son There's somethin' I must give you The compass that my father made It'll point you in the right direction In case you ever lose your way You know I've got somethin' here in my pocket This is little silver cross I think my son would want you to have it When you think all the hope is lost We're lookin' for the answer Just like everyone We know that there's no ending To the love between a father and the son I left him sitting at his table But I didn't feel alone For a moment I could see the light Oh, we were almost home For a moment I could see the light Oh, we were almost home
