Lyrics
Baba, he fled war torn Iran
With his wife and his daughter,
Thier only one
Through hardship and illness
He shaped a new home
Unconditional love like a north-star shown
Baba I love you, Baba I know
How to love as a parent should
A love that grows
For Baba, you placed me so deep in your heart
I feel your life-beat with me
Never to part
Oh Baba lives on through
Me and my children
His love stretches out
To nurture and fill them
Now Baba can walk, run, and dance again
Still strong in love, now free from pain
Oh Baba, this little girl who picked out your ties
Found all of them, each one
A precious reprise
Of a memory of you, how you took greatest care
Of me and my friends
Brought us safely home, there
In the dark of that night, like a father to all
Love is your nature
Love was your call
Those three weeks I sat with you, holding your hand
Were a gift to me Baba
Your gifts never end
Oh Baba lives on through
Me and my children
His love stretches out
To nurture and fill them
Now Baba can walk, run, and dance again
Still strong in love, now free from pain
Instrumental- and dance
Oh Baba lives on through
Me and my children
His love stretches out
To nurture and fill them
Now Baba can walk, run, dance again
Still strong in love, now free from pain
