The lyrics of the song are below

“Father And Son”

It’s not time to make a change
Just relax–take it easy
You’re still young–that’s your fault
There’s so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me–I am old
But I’m happy
I was once like you are now
And I know that it’s not easy
To become when you’ve found
Something going on
But take your time–think a lot
Think of everthing you’ve got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not…

How can I try to explain?
When I do–it turns away again
And it’s always been the same
Same old story
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there’s a way, and I know
That I have to go away
I know, I have to go…

It’s not time to make a change
Just sit down
and take it slowly
You’re still young–that’s your fault
There’s so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me–I am old
But I’m happy

All the times, that I’ve cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
And it’s hard
But it’s harder to ignore it

If they were right–I’d agree
But it’s them–they know
Not me That I have to go away

😀
There’s so much to choose from here! I had a hard time picking just one song! But I have chosen one!
🙂
So without further rambling from me, here we go!

And here are the lyrics to the song…

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don’t know where it goes
But it’s home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I’m the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a…

My shadow’s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart’s the only thing that’s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
‘Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

I’m walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines
Of what’s fucked up and everything’s alright
Check my vital signs
To know I’m still alive and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a…

My shadow’s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart’s the only thing that’s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
‘Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah

I walk alone
I walk a…

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I’m the only one and I walk a…

My shadow’s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart’s the only thing that’s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
‘Til then I walk alone…

Everybody hurts! Song lyric sunday!

For Song lyric sunday:
https://jimadamsauthordotcom.wordpress.com/2019/05/04/cinco-de-mayo/

So this week for song lyric sunday, jim has challenged us to pick a song that respresents hurt, agony, or suffering.

Here is my choice, its REM’S everybody hurts

And the lyrics to the song…

Everybody hurts, by REM

When the day is long
And the night, the night is yours alone
When you’re sure you’ve had enough
Of this life, well hang on

Don’t let yourself go
‘Cause everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it’s time to sing along
When your day is night alone (Hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go (Hold on)
If you think you’ve had too much
Of this life, well hang on

‘Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don’t throw your hand, oh no

Don’t throw your hand
If you feel like you’re alone
No, no, no, you are not alone

If you’re on your own in this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you’ve had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes

So hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts

No, no, no, no you are not alone
