this is what my history teacher said |
|
this is what my history teacher said |
|
he said: kingdoms fall and kingdoms rise |
|
in the end there is no surprise |
|
there has never been a war |
|
that hasn't been fought before |
|
so if you find my teacher in this town |
|
if you find my teacher in this town |
|
tell him that his work is done |
|
I don't need him from now on |
|
I won't find a way |
|
and one day I will have a daughter |
|
who'll say I was better |
|
better as a father |
|
better than before |
|
one day I'll come back again to you |
|
one day I'll come back again to you |
|
I'm a story as old as Bethlehem |
|
I'm dusted off, I'm told again |
|
gone from land to land |
|
passed from hand to hand |
|
and one day I will have a daughter |
|
who'll say I was better |
|
better as a father |
|
better than before |
|
and one day I will have a daughter |
|
who'll say I was better |
|
better as a father |
|
better than before |
