Ik dacht dat jij zo hard was, vader
Als je mij hebt opgevoed
Nu zie ik dat je staat te huilen
Als een kind, dat doet mij goed
Ik dacht dat je een kind was, jongen
Zonder plannen, zonder moed
Maar, wat lijk je op je vader
Je bent iemand, dat doet me goed
Ik ben niet lang meer bij je, jongen
Omdat ik naar de dood verlang
Kijk jij maar voor je, in de toekomst
Ik ben al lang niet meer zo bang
Ik ga je snel verlaten, vader
De dag is kort, de weg is lang
Kijk maar zo lang de andere kant op
Ik ben al lang niet meer zo bang
Op de grens van dood en leven
Op de grens van nieuw en oud
Zul je zien, al is het maar een
Wie er werkelijk van je houdt
Dan elkaar dat steuntje geven
Ik ben oud en jij bent groot
Bang voor het doodgaan na het leven
Bang voor het leven na de dood
