This is called "Father and Son"
ย
"Oh, it's not time to make a change
Just relax and 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
Oh, 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"
ย
Oh, how can I try to explain?
'Cause 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
Woah, woah, woah
ย
"Oh, it's not time to make a change
Just sit down, take it slowly
You're still 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"
Oh, all the times that I've 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"
Thank you, friends
