Father Lyrics » Ellie Goulding
[Verse 1]
Opened up a box of you
Piece of paper or two
With my name written on it, and a question mark
Who is this girl that I’ve made?
‘Cause I’ve been kept in the dark
[Verse 2]
And I’ve seen you once, Father
In the fear of your belts and leather
And you were just about to tempt her, and
There was distance
You’re my spout resistance
And I can’t believe that you still don’t know me
‘Cause I am a mystery
[Chorus]
So I separated all the things that I have hated
With the victories I’ve won
And the biggest one was you
You don’t know my street or the size of my feet or
Or the time it took to grow
‘Cause Father these are things you should know
These are things you should know
[Verse 3]
Knocked the breath right out of you
But what’s a brown-eyed girl to do?
When her future lies on chasing paper
And all I get from you is; “You’re so clever” and “I’ll see you later.”
And I just can’t hide my frustration
When there’s so much more you could have done
Like given me hope and attention instead of ignore
No I don’t mind, no, I don’t mind because he is just a boy
Cause we are children
We are merely children
And he is just a boy

“I did find it hard to trust people when my dad left. Particularly men. I have gotten over that now but I thought if I had a boyfriend I would wonder why they were being so nice to me.”
“We used to see each other every other weekend and then once a month, and then never.
When I first stopped seeing him [her father] I can’t remember why and it has been too long now. I don’t know what he’s like now.”
Ellie put her heartbreak into words as a child by writing diaries which later translated into songs.
She said: “I used to be angry and bitter. I did not think he cared. But I became peaceful with it. If I spent the rest of my life being bitter I would never get on with anything. Song writing is a form of therapy, I think.”
