10 Jahre lang arbeitete mein Vater bis zum Umfallen
14 Stunden am Tag, 7 Tage die Woche
Es machte ihm nichts aus, solange wir nur glücklich waren
Aber am Ende verdiente er doch nicht genug
Langsam aber sicher verloren wir alles, alles
Ich bin der, der kurz vor 30 erst im Flieger saß
Reisepass beantragt, alles dreht sich wie im Riesenrad
Heute weiß ich es zu schätzen, hab' nie viel gehabt
Doch danke meinem Vater das er mir seine Liebe gab
Heute bist du tot Papa, ich verfluche diesen Tag
Ich versuch' ein guter Mensch zu sein, doch siehst du das?
Wie gehabt, warst du da wenn ich in den Spiegel sah
Du bist so fern, weit weg, aber alles schien so nah
Ja, und es frisst mich innerlich auf
Ich kann sie spüren, färbt der Himmel sich blau
Nicht nur im Traum und ich merk' ich nehm' all diese Dinge in Kauf
Ich bin wie du, also schwimm' ich da raus, gib niemals auf
Ich hab's im Blut, ich hör' auf meine Stimme im Bauch
Es tut mir gut auf deine Bilder zu schauen
Es ist ein Fluch, ich schreib' meine Finger fast taub
Wenn du es willst, ja dann will ich das auch (will ich das auch)
Das is' für dich Papa! Ich seh' dich da hinten
Kuck mich an ich bin dir wie aus dem Gesicht geschnitten
Nur für dich, sag mir wie soll ich mich jetzt finden?
Also schreib' ich dieses Lied auf weil wir dich vermissen
Is' für dich Papa! Ich seh' dich da hinten
Kuck mich an ich bin dir wie aus dem Gesicht geschnitten
Nur für dich, für mein' Partner, für meinen Held
Das is' für dich Papa, für den besten Vater der Welt
Guck, Opa sitzt da immer noch am Fenster
Seit über 70 Jahren, nichts hat sich verändert
Man hört ihn immernoch nach uns'rer Mutter rufen
Bring mir Kaffee rauf und ein Stück vom Butterkuchen
Ja, vor diesem Tag hab' ich solche Angst gehabt
Ohne dich zu sein, doch ich bin jetzt für Mama da
Papa, auch wenn dieser Song für sie unerträglich is'
Schreib' ich dieses Lied weil's mir auf der Seele drückt
Ich nehm' ein Stift wenn ich nicht mehr weiter weiß
Geh' den Weg allein auch wenn er noch so steinig scheint
Als kleiner Junge wollt' ich nur mit dir die Sterne fang'
Du hast mir beigebracht : "Wohlstand fängt im Herzen an!"
Du bist ein Ehrenmann, vergib mir die Sünden
Doch der Alkohol wollte meine Sehnsucht ertrinken
Du bist mein Held schon seitdem ich ein Kind bin
Lässt du all uns're Sorgen im Nebel verschwinden
Das is' für dich Papa! Ich seh' dich da hinten
Kuck mich an ich bin dir wie aus dem Gesicht geschnitten
Nur für dich, sag mir wie soll ich mich jetzt finden?
Also schreib' ich dieses Lied auf weil wir dich vermissen
Is' für dich Papa! Ich seh' dich da hinten
Kuck mich an ich bin dir wie aus dem Gesicht geschnitten
Nur für dich, für mein' Partner, für meinen Held
Das is' für dich Papa, für den besten Vater der Welt
Das is' für dich Papa, nur für dich Papa!
Ich weiß auch mich wird irgendwann die Zeit holen
Das is' für dich Papa, nur für dich Papa!
Ich liebe dich, gezeichnet dein Sohn
