Ten years old, on the table there you sat me down. | |
Spoke about birds and the bees and why you had me and how | |
Life is going to push you down, it's your choice to get back up so you can turn it around. | |
And mum thinks I didn't know but my dad was smiling, and when you gifted me my first phone there was some denial. | |
With great power comes great responsibility, | |
They quoted Ben from the movie on the DVD. | |
And dad is always watching cricket and my mum gets annoyed, | |
But she still loves him and she needs him, then my brother was born. | |
Now him and I we start to put up some fights, | |
mum becomes the mediator, dad is still on Sky. | |
So mum and dad and mum and dad, won't you hold me tight? | |
I know you want me there tonight. | |
I remember the day that you left home, | |
My mum was crying and my dad stayed strong. | |
And when I see you through a screen, | |
And I know you're tired, | |
Never seen you dry your eyes. | |
I see your faces once a month and hear your voices through a telephone, | |
But Mum and Dad, I'm coming home. | |
3 years later, shifted countries to my first home. | |
Mom was there my brother didn't care, and dad was all alone. | |
He came to see us once a month again he sat me down, | |
He kissed my mum and till he's here I am the man of the house. | |
Our roles exchanged just last year at the end of school, | |
Uni called, but chasing dreams was something cool to do, | |
Trusted me with the locks to my own apartment now, | |
Moms afraid I bring my girl, she knows me inside out. | |
I remember the day when I first cried, | |
As a teenager that was hard to come by, no one knew at the time in the school that taught, this straight fat kid would aim for the sky. | |
Mum held on, | |
I fell short, | |
With the girls I’ve kissed, she would decompose. | |
On my 18th year my dad sent me a mail, | |
Girls come and go but family remains. | |
So dad, mum and dad, won't you hold me tight? | |
I know you want me there tonight. | |
I remember the day that you left home, | |
My mum was crying and my dad stayed strong. | |
And now I see you through a screen, | |
And I know you're tired, | |
Never seen you dry your eyes. | |
I see your faces once a month and hear your voices through a telephone, | |
But Mum and Dad, I'm coming home. | |
You're more my friends than my guardian angels and I'll be there for you like the friends we watched on the screen eating food. | |
I'll never change this, my dreams, you made me who I am and without you all my lyrics make no sense. | |
So mum and dad | |
Mum and dad | |
Won't you hold me tight | |
I know you want me there tonight. | |
Now I live in a house with some empty rooms. | |
My friends love my life, but they don't know the truth. | |
And when I see you through a screen | |
And when I close that book, | |
There's just one thing on my mind, | |
I maybe sixty years old and you maybe dead and gone. | |
But mum and dad, I'm always there by your side. |
