Father and Son

One of the best songs that I have ever heard, don't you agree?.


Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

Son
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
It's always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.

Father(away) (away)
It's not time to make a change,(I) (know) (I have)
Just sit down, take it slowly.(to make this)
You're still young, that's your fault,(decision) (alone)
There's so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,(know) (no?)
if you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.(stay) (stay, stay)

Son
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,(why?) (must) (you go and make this de-
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.cision) (alone?)
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them you know not me.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
