Below, you will find the lyrics for Oh Father by Sia.
Verse 1
It's funny that way, you can get used
To the tears and the pain
What a child will believe
You never loved me
Chorus 1
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, i never thought i would
You can't make me cry, you had the power
I never felt so good about myself
Verse 2
Seems like yesterday
I lay down next to your boots and i prayed
For your anger to end
Father i have sinned
Chorus 2
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, i never thought i would
You can't make me cry, you had the power
I never felt so good about myself
Bridge
Father you never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am i running away
Father you never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am i running away
Father you never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am i running away
When i look back i'll be able to say
You didn't mean to be cruel
Somebody hurt you too
Chorus 3
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, i never thought i would
You can't make me cry, you had the power
I never felt so good about myself
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, i never thought i would
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, i never thought i would
And you can't make me cry, you had the power
I never felt so
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, i never thought i would
You can't make me cry, you had the power
I never felt so good about myself
