Song Lyrics

"Only Daughter"

by Gregg Humphreys
Album: The Best of Gregg Humphreys

Another day dawns quick the sun warms
Reflecting off the synagogue stone
It's me inside hungry and tired
Pleading for the one I have at home
Today I plan to go and find
The man I have heard so much about
I've heard he heals and he could help
Perhaps he'll come back home and help my family
Cos I see
Light is fading in the only daughter I have
And I see
Life is failing in the only daughter I have
I just want to see her open her eyes
And look at me
I find him there in the street
Tell him of my daughter sick at home
The message comes it's all too late
But he looks me in the eyes saying just believe
But it seems
Light has faded from the only daughter I have
Yes it seems
Life has faded from the only daughter I have
I just wanted her to open her eyes
And look at me
Here I stand with him now
My daughter lies there on the bed passed away
And with his touch and a few words
Astounded I try to believe what I see right there in front of me
As I see
Light returning to the only daughter I have
As I see
Life returning to the only daughter I have
As I see
Light returning to the only daughter I have
As I see
Life returning to the only daughter I have
As she turns her head and opens her eyes
To look at me
