lirik lagu a song for our grandfathers – future islands
[verse 1]
been a long time, in a low place
surrounded by what i have made
need to get away
get away from what relates
and what was done
cuz it’s all over now
through the woods, i come running to loose leaf
and carve my name
in the lines, there’s not a trace
i hear the ghost whisper, and those old eyes watching me
but i feel safe…
grandfather looking over me
[chorus]
he said:
“don’t make them wait
gotta go a long way
let’s be brave
don’t make them wait
nah, don’t make them wait”
[verse 2]
i sat down, with a coffee on my bent knee
looking out, at the burnt land, looking back at me
these used to be green crops
and high on a summer breeze
now it’s fallow fields and clear-cut barren weeds
they said that if i stared
the abyss would stare back at me
so i did…
and i felt it slowly creep in me
save for the smoke, that danced when i took a drag
it made me think about the way it all came to be…
grandmama watching over me
[chorus]
and she said
“don’t make them wait
gotta go a long way
let’s be brave, show them the way
nah, don’t make them wait”
[bridge]
don’t make them wait, nah
don’t make them wait
[outro]
i hear the ghost whisper
and those old eyes watching me
but i feel safe
i feel safe
