If I Had Only A Chance lyrics

It happened on a cold December morning

Together with my little sister

I was waiting at the harbour

To pick up my daddy

He was returning from the sea

To celebrate his birthday with us

The winds increased to gale force

And the thundery clouds darkened the sky

Then an old fisherman told

Of a boat at sea

Sending out an S.O.S.

We’ve been waiting so long

Oh daddy what went wrong

How we need you now and beg you please come home

If I had only a chance, to see your face again

Tears that I cried they would blind me, on and on

If I had only a chance, to hear your voice again

Words that you whispered would seem to be a song

Time cures all things

And years are passing by

But still I can hear my sister cry

I’ve been waiting so long

Oh daddy what went wrong

How I need you now, I beg you please come home

If I had only a chance, to see your face again

Tears that I cried they would blind me, on and on

If I had only a chance, to hear your voice again

Words that you whispered would seem to be a song

His boat never returned

It’s still missing

In spite of several search-operations

The sailors were never found again

They were certainly lost in the Atlantic

If I had only a chance, to hear your voice again

Words that you whispered would seem to be a song
