lyrics

One day in the summer
A man came to his house
His dirty jeans and bloody knuckles
brought them bad news

There was no time
Like a storm
His father disappeared
The end of a happy family

There is a poor boy, a poor boy on is on the roof

Every day he´s waiting for
Daddy´s return
no matter rain, wind, or snow
He won´t look down to the floor

The sun will rise
his eyes are close
Dreaming for a better future
with the man who saw him born
