Father Figure

[RODERICK]

That's all I wanted

Something special, something sacred in your eyes

For just one moment

To be bold and naked at your side

Sometimes I think that you'll never

Understand me

[NEW DIRECTIONS]

Understand me

Understand me

Understand me

[RODERICK]

Maybe this time is forever

Say it can be, whoa

That's all you wanted

Something special, someone sacred in your life

Just for one moment

To be warm and naked at my side

Sometimes I think that you'll never

Understand me

[NEW DIRECTIONS]

Understand me

Understand me

Understand me

[RODERICK]

But something tells me together

We'd be happy, woah

[NEW DIRECTIONS, (RODERICK)]

(Baby) I will be your father figure

(Oh, baby) Put your tiny hand in mine

(I'd love to) I will be your preacher teacher

(Be your daddy) Anything you have in mind

(It would make me) I will be your father figure

(Very happy) I have had enough of crime

(Please let me) I will be the one who loves you

Until the end of time (Til the end of time)

[RODERICK]

That's all I wanted

But sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime

That's all I wanted

Just to see my baby's blue eyed shine

This time I think that my lover

Understands me

[NEW DIRECTIONS]

Understand me

Understand me

Understand me

[RODERICK]

If we have faith in each other then we can be strong

[NEW DIRECTIONS, (RODERICK)]

(Baby) I will be your father figure

Put your tiny hand in mine

(My baby) I will be your preacher teacher

Anything you have in mind

(Hee) I will be your father figure

I have had enough of crime

(Baby) I will be the one who loves you

Until the end of time (Til the end of time)

RODERICK (with NEW DIRECTIONS)

If you are the desert, I'll be the sea

If you ever hunger, hunger for me

(Whatever you ask for), that's what I'll be

[NEW DIRECTIONS]

That's what I'll be

That's what I'll be

RODERICK (with NEW DIRECTIONS)

So when you remember the ones who have lied

Who said that they cared but then laughed as you cried

Beautiful darling

Don't think of me

(Because all I ever) wanted

[NEW DIRECTIONS, (RODERICK)]

I will be your father figure

(Put your tiny hand in mine)

I will be your preacher teacher

(Anything you have in mind)

Will be your father figure

[RODERICK with NEW DIRECTIONS]

And I have had enough of crime

So I will be the one who loves you

Until the end of time

[NEW DIRECTIONS, (RODERICK)]

I will be your father (I will be your)

I will be your preacher (Father)

I will be your father (I will be your daddy)

[RODERICK (with NEW DIRECTIONS)]

(I will be the one who loves you)

Til the (end of time)
