George Michael - Father Figure

by Self Sagacity at 9:28 PM
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you
till the end of time

If you are the desert, I'll be the sea
If you ever hunger - hunger for me
Whatever you ask for, that's what I'll be


So when you remember the ones who have lied
Who said that they cared
But then laughed as you cried
Beautiful darling, don't think of me



Thanks for stopping by today.

    It's been awhile since I listened to George Michael. Just a thought. (I could not play the video, but not your fault. It's just blocked). I have never heard of this song yet, so I'm checking this out. Happy Monday.

    This song is so touching, it makes me miss my dad. George Michael has a wonderful voice.

    I had to click on this when I saw your update (on my blog). I used to like Michael, but after the things he's done in public, over and over again, here in the UK, I'm wondering about his sanity.

    Those lyrics are beautiful though, especially coming from a man who seems to be so tortured.

    I really don't remember this song, but I guess it was because in the late 80's I was listening to lullabies and Barney singing "I Love You." TeeHee
    Glad you joined in again this week, it's great hearing everyone's choices this week and seeing the different decades. Can't wait for your pick next Monday. Have a great week.

    This song is one of my favorites of all times.

    As a child growing up without a father I hang onto this song and always thought of how my father would be.

    This song does bring tears too. Oy.

    Definitely one from the childhood.

    Glad you are playing with us this week.

    Enjoy the rest of your week!

    George Michael is new to me, as well. The lyrics are pretty. It's a shame how children, especially daughters can forget the importance of their daddys.

    I'd love to have you over at my place. See y'all on my blog!
