The Living Years 歌词

	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 defence
	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 day
	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
