"Father And Son" lyrics

"Father And Son"

[Father:]
It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're so 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

And I was just like you are now
And I know, it's not easy, trying hard
To be calm when something's going on
But take your time, gotta think a lot
Ah, think everything you've got
For you may still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

[Son:]
And how can I try to explain
When I do he turns away again
And it's always been the same
Same old story
And 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:]
It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're so young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy

And I was just like you are now
And I know, it's not easy, trying hard
To be calm when something's going on
But take your time, you gotta think a lot
Ah, think of everything you've got, for you
May still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

[Son:]
And all the times that I've cried
Holding everything that I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right, then I'd agree
But it's them they know, not me
And there's a way, and I know
That I have to go away
I know, I have to go
