The Living Years
Every generation
- Every generation
- Blames the one before
- And all of their frustrations
- Come beating on your door
- I know that I'm a prisoner
- To all my Father held so dear
- I know that I'm a hostage
- To all his hopes and fears
- I just wish I could have told him in the living years
- Crumpled bits of paper
- Filled with imperfect thought
- Stilted conversations
- I'm afraid that's all we've got
- You say you just don't see it
- He says it's perfect sense
- You just can't get agreement
- In this present tense
- We all talk a different language
- Talking in defense
- Say it loud say it clear
- You can listen as well as you hear
- It's too late when we die
- To admit we don't see eye to eye
- So we open up a quarrel
- Between the present and the past
- We only sacrifice the future
- It's the bitterness that lasts
- So don't yield to the fortunes
- You sometimes see as fate
- It may have a new perspective
- On a different date
- And if you don't give up and don't give in
- You may just be O K
- Say it loud say it clear
- You can listen as well as you hear
- It's too late when we die
- To admit we don't see eye to eye
- I wasn't there that morning
- When my Father passed away
- I didn't get to tell him
- All the things I had to say
- I think I caught his spirit
- Later that same year
- I'm sure I heard his echo
- In my baby's new born tears
- I just wish I could have told him in the living years
- Say it loud say it clear
- You can listen as well as you hear
- It's too late when we die
- To admit we don't see eye to eye
Yes, I wasn't there, I was at work when the angels took him away...but he was absolutely loved by all.of us. Love you my beloved Popsie❤️💕
