Father and Son Sözleri

(Feat. Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens))

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

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

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

Think of everything you've got

For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not

Son

All the times that I cried

keeping all the things I knew inside

It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it

If they were right, I'd agree

but it's them THEY know not me

Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away

I know I have to go
