the living years - glen faria lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
every generation
blames the one before
and all of their frustrations
come beating on your door

[refrain]
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’ve told him
in the living years

[verse 2]
crumpled bits of paper
filled with imperfect thought
and stilted conversations
i’m afraid that’s all i’ve got

[refrain]
you say i just don’t see it
he says it’s perfect sense
you just can’t get agreement
in this present tense
we talk a different language
talking in defense, yeah, yeah
[chorus]
(say it loud) oh, say it loud
(say it clear) say it clear
(you can listen) as well as you hear
(it’s too late) oh, it’s too late
(when we die) when we die
(to admit) we don’t see eye to eye

[verse 3]
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

[refrain]
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’ve told him
in the living years, yeah, yeah

[chorus]
(say it loud) say it loud
(say it clear) oh, say it clear
(you can listen) as well as you hear
(it’s too late) oh, it’s too late
(when we die) when we die
(to admit) we don’t see eye to eye, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(it’s too late) oh, it’s too late
(when we die) when we die
(to admit) we don’t see eye to eye
